I have liked the 284 W long before I was able to get one. I liked the idea of the 284 performance in a Win 88 action.
I didn't find one that was in good enuff shape OR at a price I felt was reasonable.

I got this one from a Campfire member / Friend. It's a Mauser 98 (standard action) not magnum nor short action.
I also have never had a problem with feeding, extraction or ejection.

Without pushing the limits - Using H 4831 I'm getting 3000 fps with 139 HBTSP -- sounds 270 ish. It works.
