[QUOTE="Savage 12BVSS, post: 1831805, member: 112413"] Well if I was building a long action gun the 280AI would be the caliber of choice. The 284 seemed like the best cartridge for the short action I'm doing. The magazine is modified and it will feed and handle 2.950 no problem, I intend to use 131 Hammers-140gr accubonds hopefully over 3000fps. I was looking at the Peterson select match brass but Lapua is just a 28 caliber mandrel poke away. Don't know but its about a fun build that will be spunky in a short action. Course I can single load any length I care to, its only feeding that will keep it to 2.950. Also when I post finished pic's it will not look like a gun you would carry far in the woods (got a 7mm-08 for that) Thanks for the reply you are right about powder and bullets, long way from '63 :) [/QUOTE]
