Current Production 280AI Rifles

You can always take a rifle you already own, or any one you fancy used in the standard long action '06 case head and re barrel it. Mine is a 35 Whelen I sold to a guy years ago and bought back from him as a 280AI.
 
You know thats a good idea. I have a Browning X-Bolt from the first few years they came out in 270. It was the hunter model with the simple wood stock and shorter barrel. I haven’t touched it in years and I really enjoyed shooting it. Outside of getting a new barrel for it what else would I be looking at to modify it to a 280? Bolt head should be the same, might need to do some stock work on it, or just pickup a McMillan XBolt stock and be done with it.

I kind of like this idea.
