[QUOTE="Brent, post: 27422, member: 99"] Dave, I found almost the same thing when comparing the 178gr A-Max, 180gr BT, 180gr Scirocco and 180gr Ballistic Silvertip. All except the A-Max were about the same in MV and PSI, the A-Max was faster, with less pressure... not exactly 150 fps but closer to 100 fps if I remember correctly. Dads 300 WSM with the 27.5" bbl was pushing them at "ALL" 3275 fps. With 76gr RL19 he was getting 3356 fps with the 168 SMK, pressure in his rifle was still only at 63,000 psi. The 180's were all running about 67k psi. I think he was getting full on powder with the 168gr if I remember right, not sure if he could even get any more powder in there. RL19 sure works sweet in his barrel. [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img] How long is your barrel? [/QUOTE]
