[QUOTE="Pakinrax, post: 1404388, member: 89026"] So ive been a member here for almost 3 yrs but dont post at all. I read for hours and have gotten tons of info from this forum. I wanted to kinda indroduce myself and also ask if anyone has some updated 6x284 Norma load data. I searched for info but everything is 3-10yrs+ old. Does anyone have any updated load info with some new powders? I just put this barrel on the rifle. Its a switch barrel/bolt rifle. 6x284 Norma and 6.5 SAUM. Its a long action so both rounds have very long throats. I should be breaking in and testing the 6.5 SAUM this week sometime. Heres some info on the rifle....
