    I wouldn't leave a 280 as standard because of one reason only. Your mate shoots a 25-06. in the heat of battle you run the risk of potentially cramming a 280 into his 25-06 chamber.
    I know in theory it cant happen but ive seen a shooter fire a 308 round in a 25-06 - that in theory shouldn't have gone off but it did.
    The visual differences and the straight case body should stop it happening.
    Just something to think about.
