[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 596339, member: 22242"] People that are getting 3100 FPS are doing so in rifles with much longer barrels than you have. The ruger which is 22" i believe.. maybe 24" and the savage is also 24" (they say 26" but that is including the brake) will not produce those velocities under normal circumstances. All factory rifles have chambers that are within SAAMI Spec. However the savage is set at minimum headspace due to a good design that makes that possible on every rifle they make. I understand your problem with ruger, I do not care for them for many reasons, although I do own a few. I have gotten rid of many more than I have kept and I no longer buy them. As far as you getting 3000 fps from factory loads...well factory ammo is not equal to your reloads. They use powders and primers that are not commercially available, and are able to get results that many times can not be duplicated. Either that or your chronograph is wrong [/QUOTE]
