    What's your 280Rem loads?

    Beautiful rifle and with the 26" barrel you should get the best velocity possible out of that rifle in 280 Remington. I had a Remington Model 700 Mountain Rifle in 280 Remington with a 22" barrel. I used 140 gr. Partitions or Solid Base boattail bullets in it (before Accubonds) and they both...

    Ruger No 1 280 Rem

    You will love the rifle and the chambering! Beautiful #1 by the way. A 4.5-14x40mm Leupold with the Boone & Crockett reticle would be a great scope on it...........just saying.

    Bullet vote please

    Accubond or Partition. Either one will work perfectly.

    280 Remington rebarrell project.

    When I built a Winchester Model 70 Classic Sporter into a 280AI, I went with a 24" Shilen match grade barrel with a 1-9 twist barrel on it. It shoots very well and I could not be happier. I had thought about doing a 280 Remington, but I am glad I went with the 280AI. Sweetheart of a cartridge.

    6mm Rem 700 Varmint Special - Trial and Error

    That rifle should have a 1-9 twist from the factory. The .244 Remington stamped rifles were 1-12 twist. The .244's shot up to 90 gr. bullets well. I passed my 6mm Remington to my son when he got old enough to hunt. It is a Remington Model 600 built in 1964 Centennial Model honoring the...

    Prayers for the whole family. It's a tough thing to go through.

    Douglas barrels

    My Winchester Model 70 280AI I built has a Shilen match grade stainless barrel. It has been great, but that's the one and only rifle I've ever had this done to so I'm probably not much help.

    Remington 600 in 6mm Rem

    It's my son's rifle now, but he has my old Remington Model 600 Centennial Model in 6mm Remington. I used 85 gr. Sierra Boattail hollow-points in it for coyotes and gophers. You certainly can go lower with great results as others have stated. The Model 600 is a neat little rifle. It's killed...

    Best Tasting Animal?

    A few posts back I answered pronghorn antelope / elk as tie for first. I still stay with that but when I saw a post about wild game jerky by AFG270 I'd have to say that that is absolutely wonderful as well. I have made jerky out of deer, antelope, and elk and it is delicious. It's one of...

    It's Guy MIners fault!! This Was at My Door Today!!

    Boy that sure looks nice on the rifle. A much nicer looking stock than what it came with. Stronger as well I would imagine.

    Winchester Model 70 Alaskan

    That's a beautiful rifle in an awesome cartridge Guy. Once again Guy Miner helping lure Nosler Forum folks to the promised land of things we must have! Pretty cool to shoot some of those old Noslers in it. I remember when I first started reloading with my father watching closely that we were...

    It's Guy MIners fault!! This Was at My Door Today!!

    That Guy Miner can certainly lead a person astray! He is knowledgeable and has some great ideas but don't every tell him I said that! I have an idea for your new stock. It's not a Guy Miner idea but here it is. Is there someone near to where you live that does checkering. Some nice...

    Woo Hoo! LEOSA Qual for 2026 is complete

    It's not a 1911 Guy but I did okay with my Springfield Armory XD40 Sub-Compact 40 S&W. Just got home from our annual trek up to Plains to shoot, visit, and have breakfast. Good time. The next one will be in September here in Missoula. We've had a bunch of rain but it was nice and sunny...

    Will Nosler ever make an Accubond 100gr, or greater, in .243 / 6mm??

    I agree the plain Accubond we all love 100 or 105 gr. in the 6mm!!!!! Skip the ABLR.

    Big game oddities?

    This is a 5x2 bull I killed a few years back. He was not broken on the left side, it grew that way! A couple years later I saw a bull identical to him but maybe a year or two older and a bit larger rack but it was the same 5x2 as this one.
