nice, I really rate the 284 in a tikka action. If you're interested and you can get your hands on it... RL26 will really step your velocity up again, but what you have there is very capable...

I shot this match. After some mates being initially keen then not able/keen to come, and various other plan changes with work trips etc, I made my mind up to shoot this on Friday morning. No GT...

From my 20" with lapua brass I'm getting 2750fps with superformance with a 162gr eld m. Personal preference etc but my question to the OP is why the 175gr eld X ?

it would be much easier to achieve with a 22" or longer barrel! How long will you be able to load? 3.3" COAL? 2600 fps definitely looks doable, 2650 fps will be pushing it. Just a bit short to get...

Hodgdon Superperformance powder should be easy to find, about $95 per tin Sent from my CPH2531 using Tapatalk

2209 will get you close or r17 will get more or try Superformance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don't think that's quite doable without Reloder 26 or some other double based powder, unless you are going to lean on it harder than you should. I got 2600 with a 180 ELD from a 20" barrel using...

If throated to optimize for the 175 I think 2700 is only doable with RL26. 2600-2650 would be realistic with powders like 2209,RL17, RL16, Superformance type stuff. However it would be very...

I’m getting 2680 fps with 180 ELDMS & a very mild load of RL26 and 22in bbl 284. It’s very accurate so I don’t need to burn more powder & holds 1800 fps at 900yds. Based on my experience with several...

Trying to source RE17 & RE26 is near impossible especially RE17 as I’m down to my last bit. I have some Hodgedon Superformance to try out as that’s not far behind RE17 for the .284 AR2209 is a...

Anyone tried them? Got them going 2890fps into one ragged hole about .3moa with SD of 3.4 out of my 20inch 7saum . I think they'll be bloody good killers bucking the wind better than the 162s. I...
