[QUOTE="Seabeeken, post: 2283852, member: 68015"] Im working on my 284 loads now. Im shooting a 9 twist, 5r rifled barrel, 22” on a long action. I chose the long action so that i wouldnt have mag length limitations associated with short actions. This has been a 284 issue in the past. I have tested hammer hunter 101 and 120 gr in mine. The 120 shoots great but still working on the 101. Im getting good numbers but inconsistent groups with it which i think is jump related. I havent fired any heavy weights yet. The rifle really likes IMR-4166 with the 120 hh. I also tested barnes 120 tsx and ttsx with great results. Most every powder shot under 1” and many under 3/4”. Its one of the most inherently accurate cartridges ive worked with. [/QUOTE]
