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
