[QUOTE="patsarge, post: 479422, member: 31666"] I could be wrong but all 3 of my books, including latest Sierra book, put a 24" at 3000 with the data I gave which has me as approx 2900 and you at over the Max load of 48.7 which would put it at 3100 with a 24 inch barrel in a savage12vss per sierra. I trust their instraments to be closer than a home chrono. Sierra Edition 5, 5th printing. Also a 26 inch barrel with that load might be way over max load due to increased pressure. Id rather be safe at my load and Im not a bench rest shooter. I just hunt. I realize there might be better and faster loads, but my 22inch is a lot easier to handle than that 26, which wouldnt even fit in my between the seat rack in my truck. Im just happy with my situation and rifle. Thanks for the comeback but I was only giving my opinion in what works for me in a safe load which took no time to set up. Also, I prob would be shooting under .42" with a target scope with actual crosshairs than a hunting scope with a ring in the center of the reticule. My 116FCSS is just fine, didnt break any banks to buy, and makes a hell of a field gun to carry on my quads or Teryx here in the desert, dirt and all. [/QUOTE]
