    .284 with 16 or 18" barrel

    OK I sure it's been asked but what sort of speeds are people getting out of them with 150 or 162 grain projectiles if you use powder other than R17.

    I have a 22" barreled 284win, using 2209 im running 150NBT's at 2970.

    Im doing another superpig type 284 which currently has a 17" tube, may leave it there or end up chopping to 16" if i want to have it re-threaded to suit a DPT i already have, not sure yet.

    I'm interested to see what others are getting as well.

    T3 17" factory barrel, 162amax on 53g of 2209 for 2610FPS. Shoots well. Got pressure signs at 54g.

    The way I think about it is that I'm getting the performance of a 22" 7mm08 but out of a shorter, lighter & suppressed unit.

    What was the accuracy like with the H414? Like you I couldn't get decent velocity with 2209 which was a shame as I love ADI powders.

    Just on/under an inch@ 100 with h414, seems pretty dirty too. Had it up to 2970fps with light extractor marks. Hybrid 100 is the accuracy load .6/.7 @ 100yards.
