[QUOTE="bailey1474, post: 111657, member: 3249"] I know what you mean. Working in gun sales, I see that type all the time. Talking to them has kind of become a game for me now. I just keep asking ?s and poking @ them a bit and they just keep digging and digging. They're all too stupid to realize that I'm just making fun of them. Sometimes I think I should wear waders to work!!! [ QUOTE ] He was claiming to get 4500 fps with a 58g vmax out of a 243, no cronograph. [/ QUOTE ] Honest to goodness I got 4200 fps w/a 55 gr Nosler BT out of my .243. I worked up the load w/Win760 when it was about 50 degrees outside. Chronoed right @ 4000 fps. Last spring (yes I was still hung up on light, fast bullets only a year ago, shows you what hanging around here can do for you!!) Lerch and I were out shooting on the first 90 + degree day of the year. I was noticing a very heavy bolt lift and the primer flow was way more than I had ever seen it in this rifle. I pulled out the chrono and shot a 5 shot group over it. It cut a nice group just under .5" and averaged just over 4200 fps!!! Needless to say, I decided not to shoot anymore that day. ****, I must be bored. Baseball game I was going to watch got rained out. I think I've spent all night on this board!!! [/QUOTE]
