The twist on the 280 is listed as 1:8. I have not measured it. It will shoot Sierra 160 gr. Bullets quite well. They are both Hunter models. I purchased the 280 in (I believe) 2010, and the 22-250 in 2016.

These rifles can be purchased individually or together. $750.00 each. The components, dies, rounds and case boxes go with the appropriate rifle. 280 is 1:8 twist 22-250 is 1:12 twist

1:12?

Would like a little heavier projectile

Been loading 50gr B-TIP Nosler in a 22-250 over 37.6g of H380 with fair results from an x-bolt with 1:14 twist. Would like to change to a 55 gr bullet. I already know the rifle does not like the larger projectiles, and the twist dictates my size range (size does matter). The Nosler is listed...

Newer Win 1885 7wsm, dies, approximately 100 cases, 180 gr Berger VLD hunting and 175 gr Sierra GK, One piece Tally base. Beautiful condition. Less than 200 rounds down the tube. I will let it go for $1000.00.

The primers are set below the surface of the base. This has also happened with Federal and Winchester factory ammunition. I have wondered if the hammer bounces back enough after firing, the pressure pushes back and flattens out the firing pin indent.
