[QUOTE="winmag, post: 618059, member: 22166"] That's a near max load (with one of the powders listed) velocity from Barnes with a 200gr with a 24" pipe, out of a 300WSM! There's not a 308 in the world that can run with a 300WSM. I gotta wonder where in the heck you get your numbers for a 308? Your over the max listed load from Hornady (for a 180gr!) By 100fps, with a 22" barrel. Heck man a max velocity for a 190 out of that same book says 2400 fps (with one of the powders topping out at 2300). But hey, your only 50 fps faster than the max load listed by Nosler for a 180gr with a 24" pipe... A 20" pipe on a 308, shoving a 200gr bullet at 2600ish? Come on:rolleyes: Maybe I'm incorrect. I dunno. I've never used nitrous infused bullets ontop of rocket fuel, out of a small case capacity cartrige with a short pipe... I'd have to see it in person to belive it. Where are you getting your numbers? [/QUOTE]
