JS,
Well the velocity has surpassed your expectations. Now you've got to find a way to save cases for more than one shot. I think if you back down a bit you just might get that 3300fps with less powder than I need to get 3200fps!
That would be a good thing!
If you can get to the 3200-3250fps range with 60gr or so and use brass more than once I think you will find life is very, very good. Good luck!

dave 60 gr gets me 3250 fps and I should get 3 firings from the brass, they're pretty cheap so think I'll let it run there awhile.
