    If you don't want a big banger but you want another rifle they are all good points.

    A .280ai goes close to 7mm mag performance with lower recoil.
    But if you found a 7x64 or .280rem they are close to what the .280ai is
    I think Tikka make a 7x64 bit it's the age old problem of dearer dies, cases and maybe having to rebarrel something to get it.

    Tikka are great but their magazine s are short/restrictive in any chambering.

    I almost bought a Tikka CTR in .260, those mags offer a little more length.
