What is your favorite .284/7mm BULLET and what cartridge do you shoot it in and at what velocity & for what purpose?

16o gr partion in my 7mm rem mag @3000 fps for elk and muleys.

Note, I do not currently shoot this caliber.

140 grain Barnes TSX at 3207 fps out of my 7 mm Rem Mag. Antelope and deer sized game, but I would shoot it for Elk if I had too.

I shoot the 140 Accubond in my wife's 7X57 and my 280DPK and 7stw. The 280 is 3145FPS and the 7stw is 3425. The hold up for everything we use them for. If I was suing the STW as an elk rifle I would look to the 160. Since it is a Laredo I have no desire to carry it in the mountains.

160 gr Accubond or 160 TSX, at 3050 fps for Deer and hogs

140gr tsx in my 7mmstws for all big game.

Nosler 160 grain Partition at 3150 fps out of my 7mm Wby Mag for deer, antelope, wild hogs.

Sierra Gameking 150 grain, 3100 fps out of 7 Remington mag for deer and hogs.

Combined Technologies Ballistic Silvertips 140gr @ 2800 and 150gr @ 2750 in a custom Reeder Encore with a 13" heavy tapered barrel. Total bbl length is 15" with the brake. Loads shoot very well.

.284 Winchester, 139 gr Hornady BTSP for deer and hogs and home defense out of my custom built BSA action/Douglas barrell glass bedded in a 1/8 X1/8 laminated walnut on walnut stock using a 6X Leupold and an exit MV of only 2900 f/s. Built it in '68.

I use 160 grain partitions and HPBT gamekings interchangeably in my model 70 7 Rem mag. With a stout charge of N160 pushing them to 3100 FPS, both bullets shoot to the same point of aim.
My Remington rolling block shoots Hornady's 175 grain round nose bullet well with 42.5 grains of IMR 4350. I haven't chronographed this load yet, but it does shoot well.

130gr GS Custom High Velocity in my Sako 7mm Rem Mag at 3400fps - from Impala, Blesbuck, Bluewildebeest up to Kudu and will do for all other SA plains game.
Complete penetration so far on all plains game hunted above.

160grNP @ 2800fps from my .280 & 3250fps from my 7mmDakota. These are do anything rounds, deer, elk, etc. Both will easily do 1moa but I am playing w/ the 160grNAB, it's just a great looking bullet, but can I get it to shoot as well?

150 Grain Nolser Ballistic Tips

7mm Rem Mag, 66 grns R22, 3115fps at 12'

Shoots less than 1/2" and will flat out slam any medium game you put it against. I've shot piles of game w/ this combo and it has been consistent everytime, no tracking jobs when you use this load. I'd also like to note that I have never had this combo fail me on anything less than 500lbs. I never knew it was considered by some to be a bad performer until I read some of the BS on the internet.

Good Luck
