[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 985141"] Complicated.... I single feed so much, I don't know why I care about mag length but it's stuck in my brain for hunting. I'm running Hornady 285s at 2634fps on a 3.75 COAL, 29.25" Barrel. Very accurate. I'm changing my Wyatts box out for a Weatherby TRR box so I can get to 3.81 without changes. More work will follow that will get me a mag fed 4". However, with the 285s on 86grns of H1000, I have very nice accuracy with no load development. If I start pushing it, yes I can get to 2800 easy, 2900 pretty sure, more I'd bet on it. I have not shot the 250s or 300s yet. Too much fun with the 285s but with validating my QL model, I think I can hit 3050fps with CEB 252grns MTH and 2800fps with something like a 300grns Berger OTM. Of course will there be accuracy at those speeds..... [/QUOTE]
