[QUOTE="Broz, post: 931765, member: 7503"] I will guess from a Magneto speed 79 gr and .042" OL from a 26" tube to be right at or either side of 3K. From there I would definitely load for accuracy not velocity if sticking with the 215's. I draw that conclusions from what I have seen from my 300 win with them at 3035 fps average. Although I have never seen any entrance over .308" in the hide, they were fragmenting pretty violently at 300 < and we didn't start getting exits on elk until 500 +. The closest bull was at 200 yards and we got 26" of penetration entering in the crease and passing through the far shoulder but it was in the last inch or so of meat just under the hide. 1 1/4" wound channel with a pile of fragmented lead and a largely expanded jacket. Think of them as a swarm and killer bee's traveling in a swarm of death. LOL:D Jeff [/QUOTE]
