[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 2265698, member: 95344"] I have a JC Higgins FN Belgium 98 Mauser in 270 Win. I'll end up rebarreling someday due to a chattered chamber. I've agonized (lol) over what to rechamber it to. A few things to consider. COAL, my magbox is 3.400" so it limits how far you can seat out bullets. Feed rails might need to be opened up for 284 win, and they might be fine as is. I've considered a 7mm rem mag conversion but the boltface needs to be opened up. I have seen some QL data for a 280 Rem 180 Berger and RL26. Seems like 2800 fps is doable with a 24" barrel. Did you need to alter the feed rails on the 284 Win? TIA [/QUOTE]
