[QUOTE="TOM H, post: 37126, member: 306"] I think Brownells sell the extra long magazines for the short action 700 to handle the 284 case. Only problem is maybe trying to get that long round out without notching the action for it. I think may have a problem if wanting to shoot any of the bullets like the interbond if not throated for them. I've shot the 7-08 and 284 both and by far the 284 case is a better round. I'd also build a 7-08 but shorten the case up somewhat to get rid of the extra case capacity got better velocity than a standard 7-08. If I was goint to build an AI for a 7mm it would be the 7x57AI get about what a 7 mag will do. Only real drop in velocity between the two was when I when up to a 175 gr bullet in the 7x57AI over the 7 mag. Just my .02 worth. [/QUOTE]
