Have any of you ever loaded for this round..? I have a double with an extra set of barrels in this calibre.. Perhaps load-data for .280 Ross might be useful..? | ||

The bore may well be .287" and not .284". The 280 Flanged (280 Lancaster) is loaded to lower velocities than the 280 Ross. I have no experience with this cartridge and cannot suggest a load. However, I have found a reference in my library.

You can get .287 bullets from Woodleigh and also from Hawk, if I remember correctly... DOUBLE RIFLE SHOOTERS SOCIETY | |||

Does Graeme Wright's book not have the info? "When the wind stops....start rowing. When the wind starts, get the sail up quick." | |||

Thanks all....Naki, Graeme Wright do not list any modern loads for the .280, at least not in my 2nd edition....only the old loads with NC powder. | |||

Try the Ross Rifle Forum http://rossrifle.com/forum/ In the 'Sporter' section there's usually a couple of threads on reloading the 280 Ross. The 280 Lancaster is the rimmed version of the 280 Ross & I'm lead to believe is loaded to less velocity then the 280 Ross,,,but it may give you some useful info. | |||
