284 Shehane loads

[gunner69]

Hello,

I have a new 284 Shehane hunting rifle. It was built by Jon Beanland is has a 27" Bartlein 9 twist barrel. I plan on using the 162 gr Hornady ELD-x bullets but until they are available using 162 gr Amax bullets with Norma 284 Win Brass (already fire formed). Any suggested starting loads? I have a ton of CCI BR2, F210m and Wolf large rifle primers. Powders I have H4350, H4831ssc, N150, R17, and some others I don't think would work well. Any ideas and performance expectations would be welcome. Thank you.

I'm shooting my 284 Shehane using 53.5 grains of H4350 with a 180 Berger hybrid from a 9 twist. So I'd say you be good to start at 53.0 and work up
