[QUOTE="jpfrog, post: 1381737, member: 32525"] I wouldn’t think it would be a problem unless you’re looking for a screamer in the first place. Before taking it to my smith, I was getting 2596 FPS out of my 20” factory 700 tactical barrel with a 1:12” twist, using 168 gr Amax, Lapua brass, 42.4 gr IMR 4895, and Fed 210. I just got it back from the smith- had it threaded for a suppressor. The barrel is relatively new- about 85 rounds, so when it settles it should speed up a bit and I still need to chrono it again now that I have a can on the end of it. [/QUOTE]
