    I'm interested to see what others are getting as well.

    T3 17" factory barrel, 162amax on 53g of 2209 for 2610FPS. Shoots well. Got pressure signs at 54g.

    The way I think about it is that I'm getting the performance of a 22" 7mm08 but out of a shorter, lighter & suppressed unit.

    What was the accuracy like with the H414? Like you I couldn't get decent velocity with 2209 which was a shame as I love ADI powders.

    Just on/under an inch@ 100 with h414, seems pretty dirty too. Had it up to 2970fps with light extractor marks. Hybrid 100 is the accuracy load .6/.7 @ 100yards.
