284 shooters

Butch

I heard you were in the hospital and I hope you are doing better. I am a gunsmith from your area and I own a system that hooks to my laptop and uses a strain gauge to get internal pressures. I am more than happy to let you come by and use it on the 300 yard range some time if you are intrested. You might consider me to be too far away or something but I would be willing to let you use it for no charge if you would like. I am really wanting to meet more people in the business and in the benchrest community so if you are intrested my number is 817-396-4325 Johnson Gunsmithing in Cresson Texas.
 
284 Win Sierra 175

Does anybody have pressure figures for the 284 shooting 180s and RL17 powder?
Thanks Butch

Butch:

Attached is a picture of the pressure curve for 284 Win, 175 Sierra, RL-17, from Quickload. I made the load near Pmax. RL-17 seems a bit fast as 100% burn happens at about 1/2 of barrel length and pressure is very high.

Can not seem to get BMP file attached. PM me at Jeffreytooker@frontiernet.net and I will send you BMP.

Jeffrey
