[quote]Hands down, the 280. It has all the speed that it needs to dispatch any antelope deer or Elk and even moose. Most 280 rifles just have 22 inch barrel. Mine is an NEF and has a 26 inch barrel which comes awful close to the 7MMWSM.[/quote

This is about the most ridiculous statement I have heard yet. Actually all the 280 rifles I deal with have 24" barrels and one a 26" barrel. Did you chronograph these loads and how much over max were you? Don't give me results out of loading manuals they are not even close. Come on now I dealt with 280's for awhile and yes they are accurate but they aren't in the same territory as far as speed goes. It's like comparing a 7 Rem mag with an STW . Another factor to take into consideration is ammo availability so far every Walmart I know of is carrying 7 WSm 270wsm and 300 wsm ammo no one is carrying 280 ammo. You want to know why ? Its a dying caliber that is why. Its a handloading proposition and has been for a long time.
