I had to go to Hornady for that info. Nosler didn't show that. -1 isn't bad. Thanks for the heads up! 1 more to concider, but might get worked around?The 284 Win case diameter is larger then the 7mm-08.

I've been able to find brass in both, but I do reload so that helps.My 7mm-08 is my go to rifle for most types of hunting. I only shoot it in bolt actions, so my experience is a bit limited in this respect. With selected bullets it is one of the flattest shooting you will find. The 284 is a fine choice but as others have pointed out use in an AR platform might be problematic.
It will also be tough to find ammo. In a bolt gun the 284 is a step up from the 7-08. If you can get around the logistic issues 284 is one of the best choices for Long Range hunting.
I don't know of any 7-08 or 284 brass that has a small rifle primer. Peterson Cartridge has 260 Rem SRP brass that you could neck up or 308 Win SRP brass that you could neck down.Is either offered in srp?
I thought lapua had/offered srp's in some of the 28cal and/or 26cal that might be able to size for 7-08? Starline offers srp in 6.5creed, so there is possibilities? Not sure if you resize brass and make it headspace properly?I don't know of any 7-08 or 284 brass that has a small rifle primer.
