Re: 284 winchester
I just built a 284 Win on a Savage long action and it's shooting great with 162gr A-Max bullets. Here's something right up your alley.

Additionally, you'll find several fairly recent threads (in the last 2 months) about 284 if you search. Please do.

Re: 284 winchester
.284 really needs to be on a long action.
If you're going for a long action, a .280 Rem or .280 AI makes more sense.

Not sure what the policy of posting links to external forums is but may I point you in the direction of http://ukvarminting.com/forums/index.php?act=idx
There is a lot to be said about what is used in your locality.
the .284 Shehane is well supported in the UK F-class scene right now. I must say the .284 and the .308 are rather different in real terms.
I don't know what your reloading experience is but a small moto of mine is. "every one should have a .308 in the cabinet (safe)"
You would struggle to find .284 in a local dealer in the UK but .308 is on every corner.

Re: 284 winchester
I have used a straight .284 for several years with more than a fair amount of success. The rifle never fails to perform well whether 400 or 1,000 yards. I am very happy with the performance of the .284 & will absolutely have the rifle re-barreled in .284.

Re: 284 winchester
Thanks for the info about the 284, I picked up a sako 75 in 243 getting it rebarrled to a 308 and see how i get on , my uncle has the same rifle and gets on well with it. I will look in to the 284 next year, it looks a very good round up to 1000 yrds but i will need some practice to get my eye in.
Thanks
