    if you are going to reload.......which is easier to source components of desirable type for????
    or you may as well buy a 6.5creampuff to sit in the safe as no ammunition for it...no dont do that....
    there was long running debate between Tracy Short??? and Grag Duley on which was better,the big 7s or big 7.62s GD favoured the 7 and TS the other.....
    at end of day it you has to carry it,you have to feed it...and you have to look after it......
    PERSONALY I would go 300 but thats only because Im a true 7mm fan and .284 ISNT it....... .308 projectiles are always resonably easy to find and the options are endless......in dire emergency/shortage you could pull .308 winchester rounds for components...good luck finding enough .284

    Sorry mate but do you mean because GD is a 7mm man then that kinda swayed things more that way? In terms of popularity?Thanks for the info. End of the day a little bit more kick doesn't worry me. And weight is not a biggie
    i dont think ill reload at this stage
