Weatherby 280 Ackley Improved 168gr Ammunition - 20 Rounds

The Weatherby 280 Ackley Improved 168-grain ammunition delivers exceptional long-range performance for precision hunters and competitive shooters. This premium cartridge combines Weatherby's proven manufacturing quality with the ballistic advantages of the 280 Ackley Improved chambering.

What Makes This Different

The 280 Ackley Improved cartridge offers significantly higher velocities than standard 280 Remington loads while maintaining excellent accuracy. The improved case design increases powder capacity by approximately 5-7%, resulting in 100-150 fps velocity gains over factory 280 Remington ammunition. This translates to flatter trajectory and increased downrange energy for extended hunting ranges.
