I've got 2 x 284 wins, a 17" and a 22". However.........I'm going to be sensible and say, for shooting deer to 500 yards max, just stay with what you have. A 162 eldm at 2630 fps is arriving at...

grandpamac I have done a lot of experimenting in my 264 Win Mag with 77gr up to 156gr. Bear in mind the might 264 has a few extra fps when loaded with slow powders that give good case fill. I...
