You either will or will not have issues with AI. However, I assure you there is a fix. There is always a fix.

Yeah I guess so. Just with this setup other than tweaking the feed lips not sure what the options are. The AI version is not much faster but with a 22” barrel it might be worth it.

Oh, I’d go 280AI no doubt! I haven’t heard many who did it end up regretting it. It’s an awesome cartridge! I’ve run 260Rem now the last 5-6 years I guess. I wish I had gone 260AI from the start! Regardless, it will be on my next re-barrel. The fact that standard 280 can be fired from the 280AI chambered rifle, and the same for 260AI/260Rem, is pretty much a Deal Sealer for me brohiem. Catchin’ what I’m throwin’ partner? I mean, you smellin’ what I’m steppin’ in.. Are you pickin’ up what I’m puttin’ down moneme!?

I always liked the 280, and the AI is better. Most of the deer will never notice but on paper you have more mojo. And cool factor. A 175 would be lights out

That’s true. Surprisingly AI brass is available. 280 not so much. It does pain me to repurpose an 06 but the ballistics are much better down range. Not so much inside 300.
