    His barrel is chambered in 7mm rem mag isnt it?

    Probably not a feasible option to change that barrel to 280

    If you wanted a 7 rem mag you would have to get your bolt face opened up ($$) possible mag modifications (maybe not, but need have feeding issues etc) and then barrel screwed in and headspaced etc

    Would be easier to find a 7mm08 barrel and get it reamed to 280 mate

    Some interesting discussion on this forum

    The Firing Line Forums
    Preview

    Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
