You might check as Win had recall on 100/88. Back before I moved to Co 1977, I live Ca and shot Win 100/284 couple years.

That rifle got me interest in 284 and I've had couple build. As you read lot of interest and my latest 284 is on long action with 27" barrel and long throated.

The Browning Safari bolt action was chamber in 284, Mel Forbes made bolt action 284 bullet seated out to 3.000" and Ruger chambered 284 in model 77.

I don't remember what I loaded in that 100/284 but it wasn't H-4895. I used that for some of my varmint rifles back then.

You might call Sierra and they should be able give you load for that rifle.

Well good luck
