I certainly don’t mind folk commenting on different 7mm’s it’s good info. I really like my 7mm rem mag but it’s a sitting in a spot rifle and gets heavy for humfing round, that’s why I’m building a light weight .284 because I like the 7mm bullet but just fancied something a bit different than I already have.
-
Yea I think you might just scrape that with the right powder 😂😂
-
I’m hoping for similar results with the 162’s👍
-
👍👍
-
Just going to fast I take it?
-
Good to know that, I chose a 24” tube
-
Christ good speed again eh? If I hit 3000 fps odd I would be delighted but it’s not vital
-
The hybrids are bad to get hold of I think?? That’s why when I had the chance of the 800 eldx I just bought them.
-
That’s perfect that. That was one of the many issues I had with the creed,it only had a short barrel so couldn’t get the speed with copper.
-
Good speed that! That would be perfect when or if i turn it onto copper also
-
That’s good to know,I did wonder about the shehane but couldn’t be bother with faffing around fire forming again,the .260 ack was plenty enough for me😂nice set up that mind
-
I have a 7rem mag shooting copper which I like but it’s heavy so I tend to use it for sika because it’s more sitting than stalking, hence why I’m building a lightweight .284 for humfing around chasing foxes and I can load copper if I take the urge and still get good speed, ( I wanted something that was light but can stretch out the yardage and preform better than the creed or similar with a heavier bullet which is bound to help in all terms)😂 my .260 ack it heavy to but it’s my fox sitting out rifle and my .270 is my roe/red rifle again shooting copper.
-
I will see how I go, what ever happens it will be more suited to me than the creedmoor😂tried it and it just didn’t float my boat at all!
-
Thanks for that👍
-
That’s in the ball park fps wise definitely. Anywhere around that I will be chuffed. Shoots well that rifle by the looks to👍
-
Perfect thanks for the help👍 I’m glad because I’ve plenty powder and I managed to buy 800 eldx as it’s all I could find. What kind of speed do you think I will achieve? (Obviously speed isn’t everything but I’m just curious)

Hi, I’m on the good old knowledge cadge!! I was wondering a couple of things, firstly is anyone using the 162 eldx in a .284 win and do they work as intended? Secondly what loads does anyone have ? I’ve a fair whack of rs60/62 here which I was hoping to use. It’s getting built on a long action and throated out as far as it can be, it’s going out of a 1-8.5” twist 24” sassen barrel. Thanks for any info 👍
