[QUOTE="blackdog, post: 1728814, member: 30105"] I would suspect the muzzle velocity is way off from what's advertised. I started shooting a new Howa 1500 in 6.5 Creedmoor recently with Hornady factory ammo. Ammo box stated 2700fps for muzzle velocity. My MagnetoSpeed chrono showed 2525 so that's a huge discrepancy which if you're experiencing similar, would account for those gong misses at 300. I expect the barrel to speed up significantly after another 100-200 rounds so I'll keep track of it and adjust my MPBR accordingly. [/QUOTE]
