[QUOTE="bluedog69, post: 3080565, member: 118823"] Yes, but the OP is .4 grain over Hornady max that they claim hits 3000.(handload data) His hand loads only hit 2863, so that is still 137 fps below advertised with .4 grains over max load. I just watched about 5 or 6 different youtube videos of guys getting the same results with handloads and factory.(several questioned if their chrono was off) Yes I know that every rifle is different and he may hit 3000 with another grain of powder. May be safe may not. His barrel may speed up after another 100-150 more rounds down the pipe. My suggestion would be to thoroughly clean and borescope it while going through the next 100 rounds and see where it goes. [/QUOTE]
