[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 176508, member: 505"] I did one of those years ago when the ultramag first came out. Best I can remember it got right at 3400 with the 180 ballistic tip which made a great mid range gun. If you are looking for long range this is not the gun you want. Just not enough good bullet choices in 8mm. I shot the 200's in mine at 3200. The 220's would click in about 3000. No way you can get 3200 out of the 220 unless you get a freak barrel which does happen on rare occasion. It is a great elk rifle out to 600 yards or so. Like I say a mid-ranger. Unless you can get those 220's to shoot well. They could get you on out there a bit. [/QUOTE]
