    Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...

    I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
    I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
    That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.

    Have twice tried to post something that your site canned as "SPAM" or some problem.. "Contact the Administrator"... Not sure why even the "Contact" button would not send my comment so you only received my query but not the content in question. I'll see if I can get it to you this way... NOPE I use a VPN and perhaps that is causing me grief...

    Butch Searcy Double 470 NE Once fired not ready for my elephant hunt. Like new condition.
    Ruger Safari bolt action 458 Lott. Like new condition.
    Winchester Model 70 375 H&H. Excellent condition.

    Many thanks for re formatting my article for the forum

    I served my time in both the bush and during the bush war

    I hope it did it justice

    Education is where it is at - without it the wild places are history

    You - sir - are well placed to make a difference
