Thread: 284 projectiles.

162gr eldm mate, or 168gr Berger. Ive got a few 168 Bergers you can have to try, i dont have any 162 eldm's (as im still using up the last of the old 162 Amaxs.

If you want to stay a bit lighter, the 140 or 150 gr nosler ballictic tips always go well, but I'd try to stay with the 160gr+ projectiles if you are wanting to make the most advantage of the 284 case at longer ranges.

Yeah I shoot the 162 eld-m @2750 out of mine. Definitely stick with the heavier bullets to get the most of the cartridge. I've been thinking about trying the 150 eld-x as well.

2209 will give you accurate, stable loads but will be a bit slow, especially with the lighter pills. H414/win760 has worked well for me

Also I can send you a doz 162's to try if you like
