[QUOTE="rammac, post: 1990687, member: 27761"] 3000 FPS "easily"? I don't think that you're being realistic. Long range competition shooters are pushing the high end and they seem to be sticking to 2885 to 3050 FPS in custom barrels that are mostly longer than 26 inches using the lighter 139 to 142 grain bullets.

Your using a different brand bullet and that will have an effect on the chamber pressure when you are pushing the top end. [/QUOTE]
