I have both. I grab the 7mm08 bushpig 99% of the time. Food for thought. Even a 162gr eld M or similar doing 2450fps has the wallop to 600y and some. 284win is a great round and I love mine...

20 shot groups should be the minimum, hot barrels be buggered. I guess I'll keep being a dinosaur and consider 5 shot groups is all I need. I cannot recall ever having to shoot 10 shots while out...
