I hav e arifle in 280 remington that has killed a ton of game at the hands of many different people - it's a loaner gun for me, I keep it for guys who hav e broken a gun or for some other reason need one.
The people that have used it have never taken a second shot on game, eother.
One was a 350 yard coyote, another was a REALLY big moose at 200, with a mess of moose bears, and deer in between.
if I were to put a 7MM together for myself that was not a 7X57 or 7/08, it would be a standard 280.
just my two cents.....
