    Out of the old 308 with a 20inch barrel.

    2680fps


    Nothing fancy but man do they work.

    Based on this wee experiment and how my 284 runs the 160s I'd be keeping any shorter shots from the 300WSM as behind the shoulder placement. They shoot ballistically identically for POI etc as the Amaxs of the same weight as I've found out.

    I hope this info is of use to yourself and others!
