rabbit fingers Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 With an oal of 2.8 and 24" barrel it gives 2632fps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldon Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 That sounds about right as I used to shoot 155 amax with 44 gr V140 for around that velocity. I seem to find V150 velocity around 1.5 grs more than V140 44 V140 = 45.5 V150 as a rule of thumb. Obviously use safely etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6mmBR Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 I'm getting 2730 fps from 43.5gns N150 and a Lapua 155 Scenar out of a 26" barrel. Your load should be zipping along nicely. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
