[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 919432, member: 69478"] No the ,284 Winchester is a completely different case than the .243 Winchester. The .284 has a rebated rim that uses a standard bolt face, but its body is larger in diameter than a standard cartridge. The .264 Winchester is a 7mm Remington Mag necked down and a 6.5 Remington Mag is basically the short mag version of the .264 WIN. A 6mm Remington Mag would be terribly overbore and would burn barrels out in a heart beat. The .240 Weatherby burns 55grs of powder and is hard enough on barrels, now burning 70grs would burn one out in less than 700 rounds. [/QUOTE]
