Cameron I think Rod was referring to the 6.5x284 I originally suggested.
Brad, that makes sense. 6.5x284 = short barrel life.

Paul Janzso had a 30-284 about 5 years ago. He never really went on with it, not sure why. He now shoots a 300 WSM and seems very happy with it. With the 30-284, you might be up against the primer pocket expansion problem that I see with the 7 Shehane.

I'd suggest that the 30-284 will be limited to running 175 or 180 grain projectiles due to pressure issues, and the requirement to run slower! Is this good enough for F Open? Of course you could always push the 155's quicker, but is there any merit in that, not really.
I reckon that is why the WSM would be more appropriate in this case.

Probably true. 185s run perfectly well in the 308 - so no point really for that size. I would be using the heaviest projectiles - 210-230 grain. There would be no benefit othewise.
