[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 809945, member: 48043"] I've got some strain gauge graphs from my old Sendero stw on the main brotherhood thread. The old win 150 grain factory load was doing 3300 fps in that rifle and was peaking at over 70 kpsi with no stiff lift at all. Even with 3" more bbl. he's still playing with fire getting that much out of her. Everyone's played with their rifles to see where they can really go; I've seen 4000 fps with a 7rum and a 120, but I didn't stay there as even though it was a book load it was well over where I could justify running the rifle( and a bunch over book estimated speed). Brass and barrel life mean more to me than the last 100 fps. [/QUOTE]
