Hey all, been a while since I posted here. That 284 case is calling my name again. :-\ I've long wanted a 6.5-284 in a long action for long-range but recently the 284 Win in a light weight short action also interests me.

1: Stagger or center feed?

2: WSM/RUM mag or standard diameter?

I seem to remember an early review of a WSM centerfeed rifle that fed the 284 case but it was a long time ago. I like the extra length that the WSM mag offers, if it works.

I'm sure that a standard (.473) centerfeed mags lips could be cut back a bit if the 284 case is too difficult to jamb into it.


Thanks, just wanted to make sure that the donor rifle is configured correctly.

Edit: Does Savage use RUM mags in the belted 7mm Rem Mag and 300 Win Mag rifles or do they have thier own magazine?
