The .280 Remington is capable of developing energy nearly equal to the .30-06 Springfield, but with lighter bullets having a better ballistic coefficient. Thus, the .280 has a better trajectory and retains more energy downrange. However, the .30-06 produces more energy than the .280 with bullets heavier than 180 grains. Though, when loaded with 175 grain bullets the .284 has an extremely high sectional density of .310, compared to the 30-06 180 grain bullet with a moderately high sectional density of .271. The .280 is suitable for hunting any game in North America with good shot placement.The .280 Remington, also known as the 7 mm Express Remington


May be the next gun I save up for..
