[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 919409, member: 5219"] The guy might have meant it was a 284 bore but got tongue tangled in explaining it. Here is a reference of case capacity: [url=http://kwk.us/cases.html]Case Capacities[/url] They use water for the comparison and fill case to top of neck. The 7 rem mag is really close to holding 80 gr of powder. Hodgdon lists 77 gr of US 869 with a 175 as the most powder this case holds. The 7 Rem mag is 2.5" long while the 284 win case is 2.180" So we can conclude that the suggested 280 win improved will not hold 80 gr of powder! [/QUOTE]
