[QUOTE="Veteran, post: 2527257, member: 118038"] You need a standard or a benchmark to measure against. Im thinking its all relative in some sense. First for a given bullet construction or type. Then for a given bullet weight Then for a given barrel length. Then for perhaps a given caliber. If you say establish a benchmark for caliber at 24 inch bbl. with the other parameters you can build a table describing really, really, really fast. For example a 250 gr. bullet of any kind in a 26 inch .338 LM going 3500 fps is pretty darn fast..... [/QUOTE]
