[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 82404, member: 2852"] My 22-284 would shoot any bullet up to 3650 with no blow-ups until the throat got so rough that it shredded everything sent down it. From this experiment, I learned that the Berger 80 grain were much tougher than the 75 amax, but not anywhere near as tough as the 80 MK. The MK was the last to finally start to blow up. One thing that made my gun shoot all the bullets when new without blowups was the 8 groove Shilen. As Kirby has mentioned, the 3 groove is tough on bullets. I have witnessed in other guns as well that the more grooves you have, the gentler the stress on the bullet. [/QUOTE]
