[QUOTE="barnesuser28, post: 789345, member: 43468"] No, a 284 win (ballistic twin of the 280 rem) will only push a 162 grain bullet at around 2850-2900 fps from a 26" barrel. I have a 7mm-08 and a 6.5x284, i am building a 284 win to replace the 7mm-08 if that tells you anything. :) If i had to choose between 7mm-08 and 6.5x284, 6.5x284 HANDS DOWN. I feel to take it long range with a 7mm, anything less than a 7mm-08 A.I. is wasting your time. The 6.5x284 will whoop a 7mm-08 in the wind, dont believe me? How many 1k f-class open shooters are shooting the 7mm-08? lightbulb lightbulb With the 160 grain 6.5 matrix VLD with its .720 G1 BC...... no comparison. Riley [/QUOTE]
