    Retumbo or 2217 might get you the speed you want without blowing your face off. However, not sure if the case would fit enough Retumbo to get 3200fps

    yes 3 shot touching, remington 700 26in bbl, i do have a brake for it but have been shooting it last couple of days without a brake and smoked a goat at 50m last evening, didnt feel the kick
    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts
