Keep your eyes open at your local US gun shops, boys. :)

Hendershot’s offers it, but there may be some PSP or Core-Lokt on shelves near you. Blow the dust off and tell me whom to contact (please).

If you come across NOS brass that would be great as well!

Thanks in advance!
 
Special thanks to Dirtdart for coming through on brass. Much appreciated!!!

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

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.
