    Makes my 1800fps when working up a full power load look pretty anaemic. 16 inch barrel though.
    Yep, but its a 125 grain bullet.

    So is mine, the Sierra 125gr FNHP. Starting load of Leverevolution powder gave 1825fps. My usual mid-range load with AR2208 (Varget) gives 2030fps.
    From memory Remington 150gr factory ammo chronyed a bit under 2100fps, so I should be able to increase the loads quite a bit.
