Winchester did at one time cause I own a Modle 70 Featherweigt in .280 Rem
I think Tikka and/or Sako make one also.

Remington has several models in .280

i like the ruger .280 out of that list of website. I'll have to order one when i get the funds :D

RE: .280?
 

To get the most from a 280, you really need a 24 inch barrel. Reminton used to chamber the BDL in 280 with a 24 inch barrel. Sorry to say that they no longer do. My hunting buddy has one in the Browning A-Bolt.

Get the NEF Handi Rifle .280 in the Ultra Hunter model, it has a 26" barrel.

RE: .280?
 

That would be a great idea, if they chambered them in 280 Rem.

Ultra Hunter Rifle
223 Rem. (SB2-823), 243 Win. (SB2-840), 25-06 Rem. (SB2-806), 308 Win. (SB2-808), 30/06 Sprg. (SB2-866), 270 Win. (SB2-877)

i really have my eyes set on that ruger. Each .280 i find with a 24" or longer barrel is ALWAYS with the black synthetic stock. Winchester doesnt even make a .280 anymore, not that i can find. so im pretty much set on that ruger. unless i find a used .280 in top shape.

They did chamber the 280 in the NEF with a 26 inch barrel. I have one in the gun case. They might have just dropped it. I think they still have the barrels on the barrel accessory program. NOT SURE.

I just checked, they do still offer the 26 inch 280 barrel. It is 103.00. The one I have really shoots well. Its not a tack driver but it will shoot 1 1/2 inch groups @ 100 yards with just about any load. I paid 190.00 for it with a 4X Weaver scope.
