    Hey Micky , Ill be honest i am 280 fan just simply because it wasn't a 270 originally . Then i learnt about handloading and that's were the real difference between the 2 showed you just had so much more options bullet wise till now . I agree there is not much in it just what you get used to and how you use it . Its the same debate with the Creedmoor vs 260 i went with the Creedmoor simply because i could get better choices in rifles and of the shelf ammo . Both the 260 and the 280 suffered from poor marketing by remington and a lack of rifle options ,had they been better at who knows . If there are enough rifle makers that build the western, then it will take off and then we can have the same debate about it and the prc along with all the banter that goes with it .
    Moa Hunter and Micky Duck like this.
