Just a word of advise to anyone loading the .284 Win cartridge, it has been my experience with it (two of my own and my old mans) that with the sharp shoulder angle and the short neck they are susceptible to excessive throat erosion with "hot loads". Both my Savage 99's showed diminished accuracy after less than 500 rounds (one deteriorated to dinner plate groups at 100), the other, my old mans Browning Medallion, (I don't know the round count but it wasn't very many) went from a tack driver to more than "minute-of-deer" in 6 or 8 yrs. I know his were hot loads because we shot side by side a time or two thru my Crony...he was getting equal read-outs to my 7 Rem Mag using 145 gr Nos.
