I just took out my 280 REM last weekend. 162s doing 2,760 fps is a great combo. Medium recoil with plenty of energy down range. The 280 REM is a fantastic hunting cartridge.

280 Remington and 284 Winchester are great cartridges. Both were poorly marketed by their respective companies plus the guns they were chambered in. Been hunting with a 284 Winchester for 30 years now. 7mm man for sure.

It may be a lead balloon, but it's my lead balloon. Ive had my Browning A-Bolt in 280 Remington since the mid 80's. From large Red Deer on down, it has worked wonders and still does to this day. My rifle is particular to 160 gr class bullets. Which I handload. However, several major manufacturers still produce factory ammo.

Certainly is a great cartridge, and clearly has been working for you. Personally, I'd rechamber to .280 AI for the performance and versatility as I believe that it can still fire .280 Rem ammo (I need to double check if that is correct). .280 AI is definitely on my bucket list.

My understanding is that the 280 was developed in the 1950's for the semi-auto Remington Model 740 and the pump action Model 760 that had demonstrated reliability issues with the 270 Win. These guns were designed around the 30-06, but the 270 uses a 5,000 psi higher chamber pressure (65,000psi vs 60,000psi) and that extra pressure seemed to be the problem. Apparently, these issues were discovered only after the Model 760 was chambered in 270 during 1953. Remington then created the 280, which was held to the same max pressure as the 30-06 to have something close to the 270 that would operate just fine in their pump and semi-auto actions. It was only in the 1980's that these rifles were beefed up slightly and chambered in the 270 Win. FWIW. the 280 AI gained some extra abilities since officially increased the chamber pressure to 65,000psi and increased the standard twist to 1 twist in 9 inches compared to the original's 1-in-10".

.280 REM a great cartridge. I grew up shooting this in Wisconsin. You don’t see this offering very much, along with very limited factory ammo options. My dad owns two rifles chambered in .280 REM- Remington 700 Mtn with blued barrel and wood stock & Winchester Model 70 Featherweight. These guns have been over to hunt African plains game, out west for mule deer & pronghorn, and Wisconsin whitetails.

Great talk. I killed my first mulie buck, pronghorn buck and cow elk with my uncle’s 280 Rem. I used 140 partitions at 2950 that shot 3/4” groups from a 24” barrel. Objectively speaking, I could have killed any of these critters with a 270 Win shooting 130 Partitions. I now have the rifle and shoot 140 Accubonds or 140 Ballistic Tips using the same powder, primer, case and OAL. Either load shoots 5/8” groups at 2965. Again, great talk.

Many years ago i was fortunate and had lunch with Jim Carmichae(Outdoor Life's shooting editor) and a mutual friend. I told Jim that I would have purchased a .280 Remington if I had known about the .280 when I was a young man. Jim then told me ,"You'll never be able to see any difference between the .270 Win and the 280 Rem. They're both 7mm and the big game animals shot with the two will never know the difference". I've used the .270 over the world. No problems ever. Bullet placement is the big deal with both calibers.

Hunted/loaded/shot .280 Remington for 30 years until 6-7 years ago switched to.280AI. Great cartridge! Great variety of bullets. Sometimes you have to quit obsessing over paper ballistics and rely on years of experience. There isn’t any new cartridge that out perform the classics in the field unless your set on shooting an animal at unethical distances to stroke your ego or paper ballistics hunting. But thankfully we live in a free country and you can do whatever you choose.

This is a good point and I think it would have been worth mentioning a major contributing factor to the cartridges lack of success was the rifles it was chambered in, in particular the slide action 7600 and the semi variant, which is why they ran lower pressures.

I grew up in the 80's, in the Pacific Northwest, and had an older Family member who was a Gunsmith that loved the 280 Remington. He would claim, as a handloader, the 280 Rem is everything the 270 Win dreamed of being, and would also often say, the 280 Rem will do everything the 30-06 would, without the recoil. I'm lucky enough to have one of his Mauser 98's with a 280 Remington barrel. The gun is picky but does well with the Barnes 140 grain TTSX.

I have a suspicion that another factor was it wasnt big enough. My classmate chambered a rifle in .35 Whelen (358-06) and his reason was "if I'm going to deviate from 30 cal and make my life harder, I'm going to really deviate". Basically 338 isnt more than 308 enough. It has the usual overbore benefits but people have their priorities.

Fortunately, Nosler offers the 140gr Expansion Tip (E-Tip) monolithic ammo for the 280 Rem. It aint cheap, but hits hard and penetrates deep into big deer. Hornady offers Precision Hunter in 150gr E-LDX in 280 Rem. Thanks again.

You guys didn't even mention why the .280 never took off, the Remington 742 that was the first rifle released in .280. The cartridge was too powerful for the rifle, so they loaded the cartridge weaker than it was spec-ed at instead of improving the metallurgy in the semi-auto 742 receivers. That's what killed the .280.

For many years Shotgun News advertised Winchester Featherweight rifles in 280 Remington, at an attractive price. How I wanted one! But it was just too much $$ when shipping, tax, and gun store fees were involved. I ended up with an Interarms Mark X in 30-06, sold at half price from a sporting goods store that was going out of business (great choice, it shot 5/8-in groups at 100 yds).. I thought the 280 Rem was, on paper, an excellent choice. I'm sure I could handload it to be accurate and hard-hitting, just like my 30-06. But at that time I was on a tight budget, and couldn't justify it. I recall the words of a gun writer who has now gone to the great shooting range in the sky. When asked "Where are the all-around rifles?" his replay was "There are plenty of all-around rifles. Where are the all-around hunters?" And I would say there are plenty of excellent calibers out there, chambered in excellent rifles. The 280 Remington is one of them. Anyone who has one is, I'm sure, happy with it.

My dad has an H&R/NEF handi rifle in 280 Rem. Both him and I have taken several deer with it, and he recently passed it down for my son to grow into

Several 20th century gun magazine writers explained that Remington had throttled back slightly on the .280 Remington’s SAAMI spec pressure to make the round less challenging to the actions of their Model 740 / Model 742 / Model Four / Model 7400 auto loaders. The implication was that users of modern bolt action rifles could safely load .280 Remington a bit hotter.

I have a Remington 700 ADL in 280 and love it . I think something that didn't help the 280 was it was first offered in the Remington 740 . While a good gun in their own right but not known for being tack drivers .

You guys (Ryan) brought up the 327 Fed magnum. A great revolver round! Before it was a couple very successful 32 caliber rounds, then the Federal magnum made the best 32 caliber. Fits 6 rounds into the size of a 5 round 38 caliber cylinder. I love the 327 Federal, as well as the 41 magnum. Though a couple of my favorite revolvers are a 357 magnum and a 44 magnum. But my two favorite revolver calibers are the 327 mag and 41 mag. Thanks for another popular lead balloon caliber talks, the alluring 280 Remington.

Hello. Could you offer some guidance on which scope would be best for my situation? I am using a browning x bolt max lr in 308. The rifle will be used for deer and general longish range (maybe up to 600 yards on targets). I am looking at the diamondback hp 4-16 (DBK-10019), the diamondback tactical 4-12 (DBK-10025) and the diamondback tactical 3-9 (DBK-10023). I ordered the diamondback hp but the lack of exposed turrets is making me question my decision. For the ranges I would typically expect to use the rifle (Central Kentucky), I don't know if this would even be a real concern. Thanks!

I just wish I could get straight dope on whether the 280 Rem is 30-06 based or 30-03 based. I've heard both. Also, with the 270 getting some fast twist love from Browning, I wonder if the 280 would benefit from a faster twist?

They did make a lead balloon and float it in the air. It was huge.

This was the comment I was looking for before I addressed the lead balloon in the room. Great show. If I remember right, the theory was that as the ballon got larger, the volume increased faster than the surface area, and thus you had more buoyancy from the helium to support the weight from the lead.

I remember that Adam said in a Tested video that it took them a long time to actually get lead thin enough. Think they had talked to a company in the US and after a while that fell through. So they had to go with a company based out of Germany. Either way, ultra thin, used a lot of tape because of how thin the material was. But they did in fact make a floating lead balloon.

The styles of rifles the 280 Rem was put in ----- a semi auto and a pump action ---- had to have reduced chamber pressure. The designers at Remington should have put the cartridge in a bolt action rifle and stepped up the pressure so it really would beat the 270 Winchester. With a 25+ year head start the 270 Win was "known" and the arrival of the slower 280 Rem did not take off. Forget the meaningless name changes Remington put it through. They flat-out should have made it for bolt action rifles. I have a 280 Rem and it is lights out accurate.

The 280 Remington is just a darling cartridge that has significant uses and just completely underappreciated and under marketed and another cartridge that Remington didn't do any justice for. I had one and I tried everything to get the Ruger M77 to shoot and it just couldn't. I'm talking less than 2 1/2" groups at 100 bad. I did find a load with discontinued 100gr Hornady HPs that I killed a WY pronghorn with that shit right at an inch. But any bullet 120gr up to 168 I couldn't get it to consistently get better than 2"... Unfortunately I had to send it packing. I'll get another one someday.

I have liked the 280 ever since I first heard of it. With comparable bullets recoil is about the same as ought six. The downrange ballistics are much better. Compared with the 270 if you use the same weights you gain a bit of velocity. The 280 can use heavier bullets. I finally got one about 20 years ago. A Remington 725 made in 1963. Came with a Leopold 3x9x40 gold ring scope and a fancy padded sling. Shoots great. Love it.
