[QUOTE="3006savage, post: 610044, member: 12069"] Yes they are 30-06 velocities with RL17. For me RL17 velocities are approx 100 FPS faster than anything else I have tried. I am using a savage 116 and I am also loading to just under 65KPSI according to quickload. I just realized my range was 675 yards not 650 as I had posted and the altitude was 1000ft on my ballistics table. One other thing I like about the 200 grain bullets that the 1800 FPS minimum impact velocituy and approx 1500 lbs/KE (My mimimun KE for elk) pretty much coincide whereas the light bullet are lacking a little in KE IMHO.
