[QUOTE="ceard, post: 3000784, member: 128297"] Afternoon, this year I plan to build or buy a rifle to shoot LR. I want something in 7mm/.284 and I want some opinions of people who have some more knowledge or made the wrong purchase in the past. The only stipulations I truly have are the caliber being 7mm/.284 and I want to be able to build it on a tikka receiver. I have also considered the Xbolt MaxLR in 7prc. The rifle will have a low chance of being used for hunting but it's possible. I will be reloading and have reloaded in the past however am just getting back into a place in my life now where I can get back into it. The range closest to me is 800y and there is a 1000 and 1800 within driving distance however I would likely only be able to get out to the longer range every couple months. I was originally looking at the 7prc however as I was looking, I found the 284 Shehane and it seems like it might suit my purposes with a lower powder use however forming the brass would eat up some of that. Buying made brass would be nice but not required. The 7prc would be built on a tikka 695 receiver or a bought browning and the 284 on a newer tikka. Any suggestions from y'all I have been debating this for a few months and can't make up my mind enough truly to "pull the trigger" so any input is appreciated or enough suggestions to conflict me for another couple months.
