[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 2340241, member: 85987"] My point was you are comparing a modified coal with no sammi data to a correct 300wby handload. In my experience of running one for 23 years you are very hard pressed to beat factory velocities. Original MRP and Rl25 from the 80's would be close with drops but I didn't have a chrono back then. When I started with my prc with a radar I found shooting the same 190smk in a 30" I could exceed what I think was my speed by 300fps. Same barrel length though I think factory loaded speed wise the wby would beat my prc which runs a 230 berger well over 3100 at the ejector mark pressure level. A 300win isn't going to get there no matter what you do to it at the same pressure and barrel length. Have a proper tapered lap put in a straight barrel in both and it is 200fps which is a good 06 to 300 win. Want more use the right case your face is directly behind that explosion. [/QUOTE]
