the 284 is an excellent cartridge in a bolt action. My 284's are a little different, both are XP-100 and HS Precision handcannons. super accurate and deadly on deer sized game. took a 9 pt (eastern count) whitetail in Ky two years ago. 140 gr Nosler BT did the job , bang / flop 90 yds shot (short distance for these guns).
