That's good shooting.
Your velocities are right there with the Nosler book loads for the 7mm WSM and 270 WSM's!
I still have not got to handle a 84L. What with all the guns I have and don't shoot now I can't really say that I 'need' one. However if one with nice wood ........
Think I will go and get a rifle out of the safe. Perhaps the 84M Classic 7-08 with a nice stock or one of the WSM's?
To add that I would not cut the barrel! That 23" stuff is just a 'mashburn' fad.
Its not easy to carry more than one rifle in the field.
