New .280 AI rifles releasing?

[300 win mag]

since you asked and i enjoy all rifle loonies like myself.280ai,300 win mag.375 h&h.just my opinion.there are so many calibers and not enough time.

It has to be Browning. I have been waiting for years for them to chamber the X-Bolt in .280ai to go along with my .280 X-Bolts. Would have bought one the moment it was released. Got tired of waiting, so am building an Ackley right now.

I'd love to have a M70 CRF in 280ai. It would quench my current thirst for the 280ai cartridge as well as a new CFR M70.

I made one. Just takes a new barrel.

Which version model 70 did you start with, and what caliber?

Stainless classic.
Was a 270 but 30-06 or other long action 308 base cartridge would work.
Works well to 160 gr bullets but mag length gets tight

Those who guessed Browning are correct. New Limited X-bolt rifles released in .280ai.

X-Bolt - Centerfire Bolt-Action Rifles - Browning

The bolt-action rifle was forever changed with the introduction of the Browning X-Bolt. The X-Bolt builds on the proven successes of past Browning rifles and adds numerous improvements that place the X-Bolt at the top of any side-by-side comparison.

I am.. (assembling). I purchased the action (timed), the bottom metal, the stock, trigger, the wrenches. Since it is timed, I just get a smith to spin the barrel for me and install it myself. Since it is set up for shouldered barrels, no need for a barrel nut.
I decided on a Lone Peak action and am having Southern Precision Rifles chamber a Bartlein 1:8.7 barrel for me.

sounds like a plan.lone peak and bartlein 2 of the good components.

Those new mountain pros are hot. If only they had an accuracy guarantee to go with the price tag.

Browning would be nice.

Wish they were offering in the Hells Canyon price range. Would pick one up for sure. Do have my eyes on the savage ultralight
