[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 1231287, member: 33822"] Thanks for the feedback, I think you know how stubborn I can be at times :) unfortunately I lack the tools to properly remove and then reinstall my brake and I know I'll also screw up the Cerakote if I try. But I agree this would be the most simple test... So overall it sounds like it's unlikely to be the brake... What I'm planning is going out and shooting at 600, 800 and 1000 yards using my new muzzle velocity. Then point of impact on the target will tell me if the new muzzle velocity is correct or not. This close to hunting season I don't have the time to tinker with anything to see how my handloads might be the culprit. Even though I want know the cause of the FPS drop, I'm more motivated to prove out the predictability of my rifle for hunting. Might not have time to shoot at my long distance range for a couple of weeks, but I'll certainly report the results. Too bad life is so busy! [/QUOTE]
