    Sierra 183 SMK Length Change?

    Anybody know if Sierra has changed the length of the 7mm 183 SMK since they introduced it? Long story short I recently picked up a 284 F-Class rifle that came with some loaded ammo from the P.O. I started measuring some of the loaded ammo just to see where he was running the OAL. Noticed...

    Rifle Scopes Meopta Optika 6 or Burris Veracity

    Hello all. I’m new to this forum but I’m pretty active on a popular hunting forum and have decided to branch out. I’m tossing around the idea of upgrading the optics on my .284 hunting rifle. This is my primary rifle I use for hunting from any range between point blank out to 700 yards. I have a...

    Gunsmithing Anyone built a .284 repeater for comps?

    Has anyone built a straight .284Win repeater on a short action and successfully chambered it for 180VLD's to the lands from the magazine? If so, what mags do you use and/or what is the modification to the mags? If not, did you build on a long action instead and do you think an AE MKII and/or...

    Caliber choice for .284 barrel blank

    I have a Rem 700 LA on hand and a Krieger 1:9 .284 MTU contour barrel on it's way. I have Gary Ocock lined up to put everything together. Original plan was 7mm Rem Mag, but after reading many posts and then checking out the 6mmBR.com section on 7mm's I'm having second thoughts. I want a 1K...

    New 300 WM load for military VS 284 Winchester

    I have been curious of the ballsitics of the new 220/300 WM load. I was going to build a 284 Winchester for 1000+ yds, then thought twice after seeing the new 300 WM load. However...after running numbers, the 284 Win will equal or better ( depending on load) velocity, drift and energy up to 1500...

    .284 Win - 168 Berger @2900fs - What will it take?

    .284 Winchester question: Can a 168gr Berger be pushed to 2900fps in a 25"-26" tube without cooking the hell out of the brass? I'm looking to re-barrel a SA Rem 700. With the new info on RE17 the .284 Winchester looks promising, but all the info on 6mmBR.com is with 31+ inch tubes. I'm...

    I know there are guys awaiting (myself included) these from the group buy. Midway has them in stock for 28.99 per 100, cheaper than, Wideners, Natchez, and PV, none of which have any in stock. Snatch em up if you need them.

    AR-10 in .284 Win?

    Anybody ever seen/had/heard of one? I'm thinking that this would be a good all-around chambering for a multi-purpose semi-auto.

    Reloading 284 Win rounds long ?

    If I take a 6.5X284 Norma brass made by Lapua, enlarge the neck for 7mm bullets and load the round at around 3.10" inches, what kind of reloading dies should one use ? The case body length from base to the 2nd neck junction is 48,20mm for the 6.5X284 Norma brass and 47,88mm for the 284 Win...

    Range Report Data for 6.5 mm x .284 cal.

    My Hornday Reloading Book says with six different brand names of powder it will only get 2700 FPS. This is with a 140 grain bullet. Are their other sources of info,i.e. powder,bullet weight,primers,etc. to get this bullet weight to run fast enough to get out to 1k yards? Am I right thinking the...
