[QUOTE="QTRMOA, post: 1363795, member: 810"] I had Preston at Surgeon build me a Surgeon 7 WSM. YOu could build one on a LA to feed the 180 berger at 3150. Barrel life is around 1,400 rounds. I slowed my 7 WSM down to 2950 fps with the 162 Amax (close to same velocity as .284) and I should get aprox. 2,500 rounds out of the barrel. I shot a 2.25" five shot group at 800m in a 3-4 full value wind a few weeks back. The advantage is hunting ammo is easy to find. Case needs to be trimmed only once. Good brass (I have 8 reloads out of my Win brass at 3150 fps) You can run it super flat or slow it down and get better barrel life. [/QUOTE]
