[QUOTE="greenejc, post: 2366444, member: 60453"] My 24" -03A-3 and 22 inch Ruger 30-06 runs that projectile and the Speer projectile at or around 2650 or 2600, respectively. I don't try to get max velocity from the Sierra, as it matches my P2 Shepherd scope out to 900 yards at sea level and 1,000 yards at 7,000 feet of altitude, where I hunt. As to noise, I wear a pair of Silencio plugs with tempanums in them, so hearing is fine and sound is muffled when the rifle is fired. A can just adds weight which I don't want. If I wanted to max my loads, I think both rifles could reach around 2700 and 2650 fps respectively, but the combination of trajectory, accuracy and impact I have in them is good enough. [/QUOTE]
