ok heres the deal...im shootin a 168 grain a max with 44 grains of varget with a col of 2.8 and a cci br primer. im shootin a rem 700 sps v with stock barrel has a 10.5 twist and is about 25.5 inches long.Since i dnt have a chrony yet i was curious if anyone knew what this load combos speed would be ,or a free web site that may have something where i can plug this info in and get pretty close i wanna have somethin i can plug in my ballistics program on my i phone and play with .thanks in advance!
 
Every gun is different, but if I were to guess I would say it should be around 2700fps. This should get you preaty close. You can plug that in and see what the balistics tell you. I thought the rem sps var has a 1-12 twist 26in barrel.
 
I used a cleaning rod and checked it I came up with 10 3/4 the first time and about 10 1/2 the second time and the barrel measued 25 1/2 or so to the action but thanks for the info!
