280ai 168ablr powder choice

[Magnum44270]

I finished fire forming and barrel break in on my new 280 akley. Looking for suggestions on powder to push the 168 grain AccuBond and long range.

I currently have a stock n560 and 7828ssc im looking to use. I have Fed 210s, Rem 9 1/2s and cci br2. Norma and peterson brass.

22.5in, 1/8 twist barrel,


Any suggestion with those combos or can someone run quickload on both powders?

Although a little slow, I got excellent accuracy with the 168 gr ABLR and IMR7828SSC in my 280AI.

I'd take that accuracy at that speed any day of the week. Good shooting.

With that degree of accuracy, there is no need to step up velocity more than what you have.
