Fark 3200 @ 3/4 throttle !!!
You aiming for shoulder replacement surgery ? :D
What are you expecting at full load on the 140 ?
Can you go lighter, similar to 110 in 7mm rem mag ?
The Etips don't/wont go as fast as jacketed projectiles, being solid copper they have a long bearing surface with no relief grooves like the GMX & TTSX.Quote:

I used to use them in my Titanium SAUM years ago :cool:

Im nothing if not an optimist.
For a scholar and a gentleman like you Kotuku it would be gratis. How wide can you spread your arms? You may end up with 3 or 4 at a timeQuote:

It is a DPMS lower with a 1-7, 300 AAC Blackout upper, Timney trigger, VX3 4.5-14x40 CDS.
I'm waiting on a decent scope mount for it.
So far I'm very happy with it, nice & light with very little recoil, reasonably accurate so far with the 110s & 125s.
Haven't decided on a suppressor for it yet.....will probably get one :)

I know very little about these rifles so I'm on a very steep learning curve :)
Yea ok so is it 7mm rem? using those projectiles?
.300 AAC
Finally!! You got a good gun:D:D Not so steep they are very simple actuallyQuote:
