dannyt Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 30 inch barrel , don't look at less than 180 grn bullets or you might as well stick with the sweed Ack . Bc and speed go together to make a long range advantage . All the bullet types shoot well through the .284 . But not past 800 Go past 800 yards then you need all the BC you can get If you hit a critter with a hybred Berger or a vld it will be just as dead as with a ballistic tip bullet . The point being it will be more consistent shot on shot with the match type heads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 Not sure id be comfortable hanging a heavy profile 30 inch barrel off a .900 (ish) length thread of a "75" Obviously depends on what is classed as heavy,,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
