[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1207872, member: 12995"] I'm a big .280 AI fan...And also an STW fan. And probably one of the biggest 7mm fans on here. But I have to agree with Rose, the .280 AI is not going to keep up with, or replace the STW. I would say the only step you seem to not have is the 7mm RemMag. Which would make for a great rifle for what you describe you are wanting. It is right between the .280 AI and 7mm STW. It hits with magnum authority, but has manageable recoil in a lightweight configuration for those that feel the STW is too much recoil. And with a 26" barrel, you won't need a muzzle brake. You could also rebarrel your STW action to 7mm RM, and keep the STW barrel for later, or for another future project. [/QUOTE]
