I am having a Rem700 short action re-barreled to .280/brit. Having found some issue ammo at an auction that we purchased we reolised that it will feed perfectly from a 308 mag and the bolt face is 308. We where on to a winning combination.
After pulling one rnd the projectile is nigh on 140g as it should be. The surprise for me was that it sat on top of just 34.5g of powder.
Dies where off the shelf from RCBS. Just waiting for the reamer to be cut, then re-barrel and finally prof fired.
When complete it will be mounted in this,

Now has a Khales 624i 6-24x56 scope and Timney trigger to be added.
So its coming together.
