    80gr adi 2225, coal 3.645”, 2890 fps from a 26inch barrel. I’m sure there is more speed to be had from it but it’s got an SD of like 8 from 30 odd shots and grouping well so can’t complain.

    I'm getting 2818fps from a 24" barrel with 2217, likewise I could go hotter but I see no reason, awesome bullets those big heavy ELDMs

    Yep not much in this country is going to argue with that, hitting something will be the issue well before energy is
