    Just remember if its lapua brass mild pressure signs are usualy getting well up there, it doesn't seam to mark that easy but when it does you get loose primers after a few firings, then blown primers. This was not with 284 so that brass may be different..... go cautiously or you will be throwing brass away sooner than you think


    284 is a good cal, as it 280, 280AI, etc
    Fishing ... Hunting its all good
