I think the 375 Ruger has more or less been adopted as the best option as a parent case. My experience with the 280 was never the best. One rifle, a Lancaster shoots wonderfully although it’s a bit of a beater. My old Gibbs (magnum Mauser) was way over pressure with the same loads that shoot so well in the Lancaster. Another 280 I had also flattened primers and produced a hard bolt opening with loads that should have been acceptable so it went down the road too. I still have probably 1000 .287” fmj SP bullets which I’m sure are military projectiles as well as some other sporting bullets if anybody in the States needs some.
I thought it would be nice to have a Lancaster in 280. The Lancaster rifles that I have shot have been very accurate. Is your Lancaster a bolt or double?
