I appologize to those for my mistake. Likely no one else has ever made a mistake on line. It makes one feel so welcomed to this campfire when some feel compeled to correct a newby. Let's hope for a world where mistakes will never happen again.
No worries. I was just thinking that a rifleman as accomplished as you seem to be would appreciate the difference between cartridges and calibers.

62g of RL22 with Nosler Brass and Nosler 140g Ballistic Tips has been my most accurate load so far. I will find a load that works with 160-168g bullets soon and hopefully have all my bases covered. 150 TTSX's are tempting also.

It makes one feel so welcomed to this campfire when some feel compeled to correct a newby. I am seeing that you just have 3 posts. That is quick to be acting all butt hurt and everything. People here are quick to take advantage of such things. They do this with other than newbys. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

People here are quick to take advantage of such things. They do this with other than newbys. miles I was thinking that a good way to be welcomed to the campfire would be to provide some useful information in response to the OP's question, rather than making it all about yourself, all the rifles you own, how accurate they are, and all the animals you've killed with them. That sounds blowhard-ish to me, which is the only reason I took the opportunity to correct the obvious mistake. Following it up with a whine makes me glad I did.

Well done. Parsing posts is a good start to becoming very fine mother some day.
Now that I have parsed your post and the rest of the grammar squad's, it should be noted that the 7x57 is the caliber and the rest are just more cartridges.
And to add something to the original, RL22 & MRP also works well for me with 140s. Got the best speeds, along book guidelines, with RL19. N165 also very accurate. Tough to go wrong unless you pull a picky barrel.

What? You parsed my post? I feel so unwelcome. Perhaps you should parse this.

Is the plural of newby newbys? Or newbies?

Innernet speak does not require spelling accuracy.

I have two 280 AI's, both remarkably accurate. My Nosler 48 consistently shoots Nosler Factory 140's into 1/4 inch 5 shot groups, and my Kimber Mountain Ascent digests handloaded 160 AccuBonds into 5 shot 1/2 inch groups. I've long been a fan of 7mm's, and own several 280's, 284's a couple of 7x57's, and a 7mm SAUM, all fine calibers that have performed marvelously in the field. This year I took a Kudu, Gemsbok, Impala, and Warthog with the Nosler 48 and a nice bull elk and mule deer buck with the Kimber. I can't imagine a better caliber for all big game in N. America, except maybe grizzly and brown bears. You've purchased a great caliber, have fun. Welcome to the campfire.

Many dismiss this cartridge as an unnecessary improvement to the 280Rem. I have found that it shoots best with near max loads and hits a velocity/ recoil sweet spot for what I hunt.

7-08, 7x57, 280, 280AI, 7SAUM, 7WSM, 7RM, 7Wby, 7LRM, 7STW, 7RUM, 28 Nosler, whatever else... lot of unnecessary cartridges there but sometimes we just want something different. The AI is best of course

It certainly would be if it was necked up to .29 caliber....

Always wanted to neck down the .280 Rem to oh say,.277". Then push the shoulder back a wee little bit.
Ahhh.....someday.
