    So explain to me how .284 is bigger than .308? You only went to school to eat your lunch and to have somewhere to wag from and go surfing eh Gibo?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Rushy 284 is a chambering that fits in a short action (like 308) and has more capacity than 308, its capacity lines up with chamberings like 30-06 270 280 25-06.

    So 30-284 is the 284 case with a 30 cal bullet in it.

    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

    Need to work out what you want to achieve as the 308 can be stoked up pretty good as it is. Spend a lot of money otherwise on something that only gets you 150fps extra.
