Good evening all. I am trying to make a load for my 280ai, but finding load data is hard. I am wondering is there is a good Samaritan out there that could run a load for me.
280 ai 25" barrel 1 in 8 twist
New Nosler brass
Fed 210 primers
N560
175 gr nosler ABLR

Thanks in advance
 
SAAMI PMax is 65,000 psi.
with 22 in barrel, Quickload results are:

56 gr = 2600fps, 48000psi, 94% fill
58 gr = 2700fps, 54000psi, 97% fill
61 gr = 2860fps, 64000psi, 102% fill.
 
To add to Jethunter's info, I put in a 25" barrel.
Keep in mind these are estimates, approach with care!

56 gr=2,705 fps 48,500 psi
57 gr=2,754 fps 51,300 psi
58 gr=2,804 fps 54,200 psi
59 gr=2,853 fps 57,300 psi
60 gr=2,902 fps 60,700 psi
61 gr=2,951 fps 64,200 psi

I'm always curious to see how accurate quickload is, if you do try some of these would you care to share your velocities so we can compare?

The Quickload data is usually good providing you enter the correct parameters for the rifle. I like to shoot a known round (data and velocity) with a chronograph to see if I'm in the ball park. If its reasonably close then I can have some confidence the the rifle data is assumably correct to continue to customize my loads for that given rifle. You can , and should chrono the new loads as well to see that you're on the correct path.
