    The 280 AI should be just a little more of an already good thing that
    in actuality doesn't need improving on.
    I agree with o6Patient.

    +1. At age 16 I bought myself a .280 after careful consideration. That was 1979 and I haven't done anything as sensible since.

    But as a newbie in the cast boolit world.... I'm anxious to try some cast in it.
