They tried to send more several times but my cell service isn’t great at home. 280 AI, 26” Muller sendero with ratchet fluting, Defiance Action, AG Composites stock, bedded, Jewell Trigger, Cerakoted graphite black. First custom rifle I have had and really excited to get it dialed in. APR did a great job answering all my questions and I had a bunch of them. I would recommend them to anyone wanting to build one.
      I have a 280 AI being built now. What ammo are you planning on shooting?

          Used Nosler Trophy grade 140 Accubond today. The gun shoots very well with it. Going to hand load using that bullet. Not sure it’s necessary though. I have a feeling that this gun will shoot most ammo well.

            N165 is THE powder for the 280ai...I'm shooting 120gr barnes at 3400

              Awesomeness! I’m taking my newest APR on its maiden antelope hunt next week. They make some great weapons!

                  A good friend of mine will be doing the handloads. He has a 280AI also. Not sure what powder he’s been using but his loads are very accurate. Thanks for the info. I will ask him about it.

                    Unless your tube is an outcast it will work...sorta like saying N133 won't group in my 6ppc.
                    Like they were made for each other & been shooting one since 1994.
