Had some good results yesterday while breaking in the barrel.. I got 9 rounds fired and have chrony readings of over 3000 fps ( 3022 avg. )

The set up is a mod. 70 Win. LA ( push feed ) 28.5" Hart 8 twist

I used H4350 at 50.5 grns. to get to 3000 no real pressures signs yet. at 50 grns I was at 2980 +

All 9 shots were into .80 with various powder charges. So I am happy to say the least....

I'll keep ya posted
