I want to build a new long range rifle and I am looking at the .280 Remington ackley improved or a .284 Winchester ackley improved. I need to know if the .284 has/can be made? Also which one has the largest case capacity? If I am reading correctly, both are .284 and the BC is out of this world for that cal. Berger states .617 and .659 for the VLD's that I want to use. If anyone cares to, please share what ballistics that I can expect from both cartridges. I will be shooting a 32" Broughton 5C barrel so I should get some added FPS in the long barrel. I intend to shoot 1000 yards and farther with the new rifle. Any help will be greatly appreciated. BK
