I have one of each. The 280 has a slight range advantage, on paper, over the 7mm-08, but both are out there to the point of: Are you really that good? My 7mm-08 has an advantage in it is a youth model and slightly more agile when I'm hunting in my limited space hunting stand. I see no significant accuracy advantage. One advantage the 7mm-08 may have is the availability of ammo, but still not as popular as a few other calibers. The 7mm does open up many options for reloaders however; lots of options.
