[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2791450, member: 25831"] I shoot the 245 Berger from a 300 RUM. It is 27" and I get 2931 FPS pushing it pretty hard. Drop that to 22" tube and it hits 1800 FPS at 1000 yards. It is a SAAMI chamber and I am loading them to fit in the 3.85" Wyatt's box (cause I'm and idiot and didn't get the 4"). Set up right, I am sure you would beat that for sure. I have found them super easy to shoot and don't care where they are in relation to the lands...My next barrel will be in the 22" length range. These would be even better at elk elevation I'm sure. [/QUOTE]
