[QUOTE="dakor, post: 61187, member: 2204"] FiftyDriver I agree with you about the 140 going 3800 fps out of a 27 inch barrel that does not add up. I stated that I achived 3600 fps more like 3613 fps to be exact but that was only with a Barnes 140 TSX and that was a top load anything more and the bolt would opened up tight. Now as for your question I shoot 140 Accubonds at 3420 FPS with 85 grains of H-1000, 150 Ballistic Tips at 3350 FPS with 83 grains of H-1000, 160 Accubonds at 3250 fps With 82 Grains of H-1000, and 175 Sierra SPBT's at 3150 fps with 81 grains of H-1000.
