check them out I am thinking about the Venture or Marlin xs7s.

You won't be able to get a .280 in the Marlin. The XL-7 is, I believe, only chambered in .25-06, .270, and .30-06.

The XS-7 is chambered in short action cartridges. The 7mm-08 would fill your bill, and although the ammo isn't as commonly found as .30-06 or .308, it's still much more common than .280, at least in the stores I've been to.
