So I just joined the .280AI family with my purchase of a factory. 280AI in the browning Xbolt stalker long range. The gun has a 1:8 twist in a 26" barrel. This gun will be used primarily for target shooting at range but I have not ruled out hunting with it at this time.
For those of you that have or do reload for this caliber where do you get your reloading data from? I have 3 manuals and none of them have this caliber in them. I would also like to know what powder you have had good success with? I'm thinking about trying some reloader 26 to start with. I have a few pills to choose from being the 168VLD and the 162 ELDX and 150 nosler BT. I also have some 139 interbonds but I use them in my standard .280. Have you ever loaded with these? If so what kind of results did you see? Or did you find something else that worked well? Any information on this would be much appreciated.
