I just ordered a 22-284 barrel with a 8 twist. I want to shoot some of those nice heavy bullets :) they are making now. I know its overbore, you don't have to remind me, but if I don't want to burn a barrel up I'll shoot something else that day. This isn't for target its for long range varminting and coyote work, I'm going to start with the barnes tsx and see what they do. Here in PA we don't have the same hunting style as other areas. A couple of groundhogs in a day is good and a coyote now and then. We don't sit on a prairie dog town (although I wish) so this barrel will last for awhile.

Just curious who has any experience with this caliber? And what have you found for good powders?
