GGG MV?


Mac.308

Recommended Posts

Afternoon everyone,

 

I'm wondering if anyone has Chrono date on GGG 7.62 through a 16inch 1 in 11 barrel?

 

Just looking for a rough SWAG starting point until I can chrono.

 

Thanks

Mac_Google "308 MV loss with short barrel"

There are a few good controlled such exercises.

Loss varies a bit with cartridge loading,and just which inches come off,but 22fps per inch is a ball park guide average.If anything a tadmore as 16" is barely 'all burned' in some loads.

Taking ball park 22 fps per barrel inch,so 176 fps loss in 16 inch barrel ;and SAAMI 24" barrel MVs:

 

 

175g @ 2600 gives. (2600-176)fps which is. 2424 fps

168g @ 2700 gives (2700-176)fps, which is 2520 fps

147g.@ 2800. gives. (2800-176)fps,which is 2620 fps

 

NATO spec may be loaded a bit faster, 22fps/inch is an average over barrel length figure,and barrels vary a bit.The SAAMI MVs are derived from far more rounds,on probably more reliable instruments.

Bradders is bob on.

 

147gr cheap as chips GGG. Not match etc.

 

Local RFD had some.

 

Not mega " one hole" ammo, roughly 1.5 to 2 moa.

 

The rifle itself with other ammo is a "one holer"... sub moa with 155gr HBC @ 2360fps
