    Using 2209, 20 in barrel 154SST's 2850 fps and 140ABs 2900+.
    Tried 2213sc but velocity not as good as 2209.
    Am about to play round with some RL19 & 150gn LRAbs and 160 gn TMKs.

    That sounds good. I was wanting to try the 150gn Sciroccos with the 2209. I have a 22" barrel so that gives me an idea of possible speed.
