Well I want to push it that fast because I am building a competition rifle. I just picked up a nice featherweight in this chambering. I am in the process of gathering components but have not started loading for it yet. I also have a 7mm barrel blank on order and a donor action standing by.

I could go with a .280 or .284 win but was hoping to have some brass and components commonality.

I don't plan on loading my featherweight to those velocities for hunting these poor Texas whitetail. I don't want them to 'splode. I doubt I will be using my amaxs on them either although I have in .308 with good success but some meat damage.
