    Have you tried Nosler 150g Ballistic Tips

    They would be the only projectile I would want to use in a 280
    A big fast bullet beats a little fast bullet every time

    How many clicks as 7mmsaum suggested the Nosler is an exceptional killing bullet sometimes we get hung up on bc. Where nosler are a hunting bullet foremost. I've moved to BT and AB as they are ready available and easy to load.

    I agree they're a good hunting bullet but I often have to shoot past 450yds across a valley, no chance of getting closer. If it was all under 400yds, there are heaps of options.
