[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 201740, member: 10"] I would think you will easily get +3200 fps. My brother is just a hair under 3200 with his 26" barrel. Watch for one thing however, velocity is not a friend of these bullets once it reaches much over 3200 fps. I have seen this in many different calibers of A-Max bullets, very similiar to the Berger bullets in that respect. If you can get up to 3250 with good accuracy, I think you will be dealing with a very good long range load. I personally believe you may well be able to break 3300 fps with your rifle but again, accuracy may or may not be there. Terminally, this bullet will be explosive at any range under around 300 yards. Keep that in mind. If your looking at an elk in your scope, make sure you give that bullet a clear path into the lungs or you may have problems. On deer and pronhorn size game, you will not have any problem but tissue damage will be severe. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
