    Interesting at how everyone seems to be shooting deer at 600 yards with 7mm08's however. I know they have a decent BC but you wouldn't catch me shooting shit at anything over 400 with one.

    284 reamed from a 708 as above mentioned does a decent job when pushed hard, remember though that some compare the 708 or 284 loaded hard to a standard 7Rm which is not an accurate comparison.
    The 284 is a super cool caliber, easy to load and mine were accurate and loading from 140-162 pills is a great advantage.
