I love my 280 Ross M1910 Sporting rifle. It's a beautiful rifle that can be quickly reloaded. It is a relatively mild shooting rifle for a powerful cartridge.

Yes - Ross was first if 1905, BUT the important thing is, the .250 Savage was the first in the USA, where all world records are set & maintained.




Ha ha. At least per modern gun writers and their magazines.

I thought that the 280 Ross was the first commercial cartridge to attain 3000 fps and not the Savage 250. This feat was achieved in 1905. And besides, the Ross produced those velocities with a 140 grain bullet.




I wasn't aware of that. Thanks.
