.284 ackley Improved

[Shooter21]

Search didn't yield anything, so now it's an open bid.

Thinking of a 7mm barrel eater to go with my 6mm one. That being said, I don't know of anyone ever attempting this caliber. It would use less powder than a 7mmRM and should get close in real life delivery.

The rifle would be built on a Stevens 200 action I have collecting dust, a 28" 8.5 twist tube, and ended with a thruster brake in a T4.

Thoughts on the idea?

Re: .284 ackley Improved

have you looked at the .284 Shehane? Sort of an improved .284


middle of the page has a little bit of info on the Shehane:

If you want to improve a 7mm also look at the 280AI, speeds on par with the 7mm Rem Mag/7WSM/7SAUM
