Hi,

I will load some 150grs Nosler Partition for a friends .280Rem.

How long will the COL be?

Every rifle is different. I can only seat to 3.27" w/ Nosler 150's in my Weatherby LT. Do yourself and your friend a favor, measure the maximum seating depth for that particular rifle!

I refuse to load for a rifle unless I have the rifle in hand to check various dimensions for fit and feeding, especially overall length. Pay attention to what South40 says.

I agree with the last 2 posts. The loads should be tailored to the specific rifle especially in loads approaching max. My older model Ruger M77 only permits 150 gr. Noslers to be seated 3.235" @ .015" off the lands.

However, there has to be a certain "standard" length for the factory ammo, say Fed. Premium, which most likely has a shorter OAL than spec.

I agree with you that it�s best to check the specifik weapon.

What are the COL on Fedral�s 150grs Partion?
If I use Fedral�s COL and a min. load of powder all will work up fine?

It�s very hard in Sweden to find .280Rem in stores. You must order it and wait for 2-3 weeks.
