[QUOTE="dfryabq, post: 2082183, member: 26183"] Ha, 57.5 grs of IMR4350 is exactly what I shoot in my A-Bolt with 145 Speer for 3000 FPS on its 22” barrel. the A-Bolt has a short box but long throat and gives good velocity. 150s down worked great and regular cup and core 160s. 120 TTSXs scream and nocked the crap out of hogs, etc. I have and old Winchester target action that is my back up Palma rifle that I am currently trying to decide 7mm-08AI or 284 for 180 Berger’s for a dedicated 1000 yd match rifle, it does allow for ejection at 3.070”, but still would have hybrids a little past the neck shoulder junction. Anyway, the 284 is just a great cartridge and killed every thing in the A-Bolt from cow elk down to coyotes with it and never more than one shot needed. Having a Savage long action that I plan to rebarrel to 284 for 180’s. dave [/QUOTE]
