So my rifle is a T3 7mm-08 reamed out to .284 and cut back to 16 inch with a DPT over barrel suppressor and a Stug carbon fibre stock which I've been running for the past few years and it's accounted for a fear few sika, fallow, reds and now chamois.

My favorite load is 53 gr AR2209 behind a 150 Sierra Game King which will give me 2557 fps and give me great groupings out to 300 mtrs which is the furthest I've tested

Is there anyone on here with a 20 inch .284 who could share their experiences?

Yep, have both 20 and 22 in 284s. In fact done two 20 in and load dev for both.
160 TMKs with Superformance giving 2830 - 2850 fps.
145 Speers w 2209 giving 2900+ fps

In 22 in bbl Tikka 2506 donor action Truflite 1:8.5 twist
162 AMAX with RL17 doing 2950 fps, 0.5 moa groups
160 TMKs with Superformance 2900 fps
150 ELDX w RL17 2995 fps
