Once again BBJ and I agree.
The 280 is a superior round to the 7-08. As I've stated before the 280 is my favorite weapon.
If anyone can tell the difference between 8 inches and 7 inches at 300 yards they are a better shot than me. I personally would much rather shoot a 140 gr. 7mm bullet than a 150 gr. 30 caliber due to thebetter sectional density. but like they say opinions are like butts....everyone has one....some stink worse than others....
