Default 280 AI Loads
Well the new rifle is here and its time to start cooking up some loads. Looking for bullet and powder recommendation's from other 280AI shooters.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks

My 280AI rifles liked the 140gr TTSX in front of R-22. IMR4831 did almost as well.

Thumbs up Imr
IMR 4350 154gr Hornady Iterbound or SST great load for my gun.
Did 4831 IMR worked good too just 4350 came in with better groups.

Use caution. There are some hot loads mentioned here.
