Thread: 284 Win 140 gr Berger VLD RL 17 and RL 26

Hi all
Got to the range on Sat with my two boys (12 & 10) who spent the morning shooting MOA groups at 100m with a new CZ 17 HMR that her majesty's government recently funded, these little shooters are awesome getting the boys to shoot at some extended range, easily will take rabbits!. The 284 went great with (as expected) the 150 ELD X doing just on 3000 fps with RE 17 out of 20" barrel and just on an inch group. Nice to shoot and no excessive primer flattening or web expansion, so will now start to refine with powder weight and seating depth. I still have some Sierra MK (150 BTHP) to try as well. Very happy and will update as I get more range testing done. I have evolved into using the heavier projectiles so might also try some 160ish options as well.

Cheers
