Should not be an issue with feeding, you might have to open up the lips on the mag slightly for284 but not a show stopper. I’m not a gun smith but I’d be asking another Smith for a 2nd opinion. 284...

Dean has built 3 rifles for me now, definitely worth the wait. I'm starting to build up a selection of reamers and putting pressure on my brother to buy a lathe. He's a trained tool...
