    Called a 30-284, pretty common, depending on action length may be better to go saum

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    No I dont you have it!

    It is a good option for more horsepower from a 08 length action while retaining the standard bolt face.

    In theroy it runs around 30-06 speeds but in practice it runs better than that.

    Might be a 'brew' to consider for F/O.
