[QUOTE="highdrum, post: 1998449, member: 13732"] Let me tell you about my experience with 3 different Sherman cases: 7mm/6.5 Sherman max, ans 25sst. Take the speeds Rich is advertising to you, deduct 100fps, and ask yourself if you're willing to accept that speed for the work of the wildcat chamber. None of. My rifles have gotten the high fps even with 26" barrels on all 3. Top end pressure has been 100fps less than stated by Rich(which I believe are absolute best case speeds at high pressure loads) the majority of rifles will not get there in my opinion. . They still perform well, but not the mythical speeds some get. So take a conservative approach knock off 100fps from stated velocity, and if you're good with that, rock on. Just my experience with 3 Shermans. And 2 of guys that I load for. And of these 5 only 2 had proof barrels, ans both were replaced with barrels making the same speeds as original. [/QUOTE]
