[QUOTE=".300 Dakota, post: 2531482, member: 106514"] True! It might be optimistic. I'm comparing to the run of the mill 130gr Core-Lokt, Power Point, Hornady Frontier 130gr BTSP, or even other factory rounds including boattails. A Superformance round or other round using high energy propellant (there are a few) it will not outrun. The rounds I'm referring to advertise muzzle velocity at 3060ft/s or thereabouts. I'm expecting change over 3100 with the 130 grain and up to 3250 - 3300 with the 110 TTSX and something in between with anything else. Looking at 6.5 Creedmoor data, Inshould be able to get there with 25" barrel and the right powder. We will see. I'm mot going to blow primers trying to make it, though. If it does, it does, and vice versa. It will depend on the barrel, I'm sure. I believe it has 5R rifling, which doesn't really help, but doesn't hurt, either. [/QUOTE]
