[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2846497, member: 313"] You'll need a rather long barrel to get anything close to 2,800 fps, IMO. I've shot 250gr monos with the Barnes max charge of AA1680 and got 2,330 (IIRC) from my 18.5" Marlin SBL. I have also shot the 402gr ShockHammers at a MV of 1,700 fps and got complete petal separation and dispersal on a Maine bull moose. The core flew out the opposite side. [/QUOTE]
