LOL!
You two make me laugh!!!
It's data from an online calculator. Did you catch the part where the 280rem was only going 2775fps at muzzle? You must have missed that little tid bit of info, probably never noticed that even though it started out 25fps slower it ended up going over 100fps faster at the 500yd mark while packing 100ft/lbs more energy to boot. I guess you missed that part or the equation.
If you want to start putting in hand load data I can put in the data from my Cooper 280rem and make that 30-06 look like a real turd.
I sure hope you guys aren't trying to tell me the 30cal ballistics will beat out the 7mm ballistics in these cases with these weights? Put your feelings aside and look at the facts, they are not hard to find. It's not me trying to hurt your feelings, they can be found on any ballistic calculator.
Here, have a gander at this and tell me who is purposely underestimating and willfully blind. You can send an email to its creator and tell them to add more powder to the 30-06.

I compared the 160 and 165 Nosler partitions, punch in the 280rem 140gr Winchester bst compared to the 30-06 Winchester 150gr bst for a giggle.
