[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 539205, member: 5219"] Thanks for the additional details. I have killed one bull and 5 cows with my 284 but that was a long time ago. I used 140, 150 and 160 nos pt. Haven't used that rifle for elk in at least 15 yrs. I often bring it as a spare but so far it hasn't been used. Now days I load a moly coated 160 accubond seated out just under 3.1" to fit the lengthened magazine box. Very close to rifling but not contacting. 57 gr of RL-17 from 23" barrel 3070 fps @ 75 degrees. You simply must try RL-17 in your rig. [/QUOTE]
