Hasn't VCam got one?
300 saum mate way easier and will fit in the magazine lengthwise it's only a baby magnum :thumbsup:
Is the bolt face job for the 300 not too expensive?
Just neck it down to 6mm Gibo you could call it a 30/243 😄
Yea Iv got one.
178s at 2975fps 25.5 inch barrel.
The rebated case head ideally suited the 308 Sako as opening up the boltface is not really an option.
Goes well even with some projectile sitting down in the case.
Im not really up on the rems cos id rather have a tikka or savage or mossberg :thumbsup::D but it is pretty simple to open the boltface I think?
30-284 should in theory be the ballistic twin of 30-06 but with the right powder and lapua brass mine seems to be capable of much much more than that.
its a little one thoQuote:

No not wrong action,308 length actions is what the 284 case was designed for but being a Rem it would be easy to open bolt face for say SAUM.Quote:

Its more like going from 2 to 2.5 mate ha haQuote:

Looks like quite a sensible chambering, that 30-284. A 338-284 or 35-284 would make a great bushpig round for the thick shit :thumbsup:
Thanks VC. It had me buggeredQuote:

I've been thinking about a short barreled .375Saum quite a bit, its just my "fun fund" is MT at the moment :(Quote:
