[QUOTE="gunner69, post: 666520, member: 35270"] I love the LRX bullet. Hit this mule deer at 287 yards with a 175 gr LRX out of a Lazzeroni Patriot. The deer was down and dead before I could find it in my scope after pulling the trigger. Never moved. I believe my barrel is a 1:12 on that rifle but it is a .30 cal bullet. The .284's are longer and skinnier so I could see how you would need a tighter twist. I have a .284 Win that I am going to try the 168 gr LRX in. It is a 1:9 twist. That gun is dialed in for 180 Berger VLDs but with the impressive performance of the LRX I am going to work up a load with R17 and hopefully take it on a Colorado Elk hunt I have scheduled in October. I'll try to update you on my findings. [/QUOTE]
