@Philip Glass take a look at Choice Ammo. Somebody on another thread posted a like to this Montana based ammo maker and I quickly ordered a few boxes of 06 and 7mm mag.

They list the 180 gr Barnes on backorder, but it's worth a try to put your name on the list.

If you get in a bind, two of my sons-in-laws shoot 300 WM and they have a bunch of Hendershots Extreme Ammo with 180 gr Swift A-Frames. I can get you a couple of boxes. They also have a bunch of the Serbia stuff. Good for target and deer hunting, but the velocity is a bit lower as I recall.
Thanks very much. I got some of the Serbian ammo just for practice since it was 180g. It does not group well but I can always just bang some steel with it.
Regards,
Philip

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci
Philippe

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
