Can 450 bushmaster brass be used.
Seems like your 800 series bolt would do well with it.
Would 6.5-284 dies milled down at the bottom work
Black followers have been made that center feed the 450 with stock steel mags and run well.
Just as good as 450 mags.
Sig mags work with the 450.
The 450 is a real hammer under 200 yards.
A 6.5 going 2800 fps would reach out a lot farther.
450 brass is good quality and not as thick as 284 brass and might hold a little more powder.
Would need much trimming since they're 1.7 inchs long.
