[QUOTE="Sargesniper, post: 1016389, member: 61726"] Four questions for you ME. 1-What chronograph are you using? 2- What elevation are you shooting at" 3- What was the temp. at the time? 4- What is the barrel length of and the rifle you have? I would like to see those speeds out of mine. I do not shoot any heavier than 175 gr. If 2800 - 2900 is feasible and safe with 167 - 175 gr. projectiles this may open up to a long range hunting .308 rifle for a lot of folks. I look forward to future posts on this matter. Very interesting to say the least. I have 1 lb. of 17 in the cabinet un-opened that I was going to try in my .260. I can only imagine the velocity as it has a 30" barrel. I'm wondering how the .308 groups at these velocities. Test and post please. Thanks .....Sargesniper [/QUOTE]
