I had the same chrono in your picture, actually still have, however usability of the garmin blows it away, and the best the feature is how tiny it is. Highly recommend it.
Read up on them, they seem to have a track record of complete passthrough's which I prefer over the Accubond(personal experience). I wish they all fell where they were shot, even hitting them in the vitals. I want a blood trail.I'm not too sure about those hammer bullets Just my opinion but don't seem like they would perform
You'd likely get 3400 with one of those two powders. I knew a guy that was getting 3400 with 96 of RL25.It's a rem 700 26in I was thinking I could get 3300fps with 180Accubonds using RL26 or RL25 , hey Aussie hunter Steve is sounds like your rifle is a straight up winner 0.5 at 1200 absolutely nothing to complain about there that's for sure
Hammers don't have pass thoughs unless close range from what I've experienced in 4 different calibers . Even if do they've shed their pedals and have done damage. I've used a lot of different bullets in a lot of different calibers in the last 47 years. Most work. Some better than others. I've found it's the velocity and distance of what the bullet I capable of. I have some favorites but I use them at I know will work. I won't get into them.Read up on them, they seem to have a track record of complete passthrough's which I prefer over the Accubond(personal experience).

Find someone who has the Garmin and use it! Then you'll understand…Why garmin
I used 99.0 - 100.0 grs Retumbo. Right at pressure.I ran 97grs Retumbo with 180AB's and Sciroccos a long time ago at 26".
Good friend of mine used 98grs.
Performance on deer and pigs was thoroughly impressive.
No brakes back then. Younger and a lot tougher.
Wonder what N570 would have given for velo?I used 99.0 - 100.0 grs Retumbo. Right at pressure.
Later I had a magna brake installed. I shot a lot more accurately with 40% reduced recoil. Made me a believer in brakes since 1996.
I did the same with my first 300 rum. It was a factory Remington with a 26" barrel. I was shooting 100 grains of retumbo with 180 swift sciroccos at 3400 fps. I shot it about two years without a brake then I decided I wasn't man enough and had a gentry Brake installed and I was much more consistent with it.I used 99.0 - 100.0 grs Retumbo. Right at pressure.
