A twist rate check might help, too, as most .280s are slower pitched than the 7x57/7x64.




280 wasn't developed/named until the late 50's
The dude who bored and rifled that barrel was dead by the time the 280 twist rate was decided.




Yeah, that's a good point. I was thinking about that Ruger when I typed that and was thinking whole-barrel.

You are right, a simple rechamber would not have affected the bore at all whatever 7mm it may have been.

Good point!
