2519 fps with a variable of 11 fps over the 6 shots. It's my most accurate load for that powder/bullet combination. I shoot a Remington 5R Gen2 20 inch barrel.

I shoot it out of a Remington 5R Gen2 308. Handloaded of course but have also shot with factory ammo. Factory ammo group was under 3/4 inch, handloaded ammo at .5". I haven't shot a whitetail with it for expansion performance yet.
