[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1505189, member: 30902"] That article needs some serious editing. 3600-3800fps is really the practical limit of the cartridge. The .204 Ruger is the only commercial round produced with an actual velocity of over 4,000fps. Push the 17's that fast and unless you're using a solid copper bullet they tend to vaporize in flight before hitting the 100yds mark. [/QUOTE]
