    Thanks for the info guys ,cheers also both for the speeds.

    Interesting about the Norma brass, I was going to go for that over the Winchester but I'll rethink, the Winchester brass shot well in my 30 06 load development last weekend, mind you I weighed each case and bullet so they were all the same.
    Maybe the Win cases just get a bad rap on the net sometimes.

    I use norma cases max load of win760 (59gr I think) and that gets the 220 Hornady RN going 2630fps. They fit in the mag too! not that that matters cause every deer has been bang flop to 300 so far

    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

    I was really hoping to get this thread full of good info before you came back
    Perhaps if you left again for awhile.

    You should get one in a blaser R8 to use as a alpine rifle.

    I thought about it.
    yeah right.

    I knew as soon as Gimp posted this thread would go to the pack thats why I started it whilst he was away.
    Thankfully he hasn't posted in the cricket thread.
