    Factory Loads and their speeds.

    Shooting through a 24" Brownells/satern rifle length barrel, I was well pleased with the results!
    For those of you who dont have a chrono and want some data close to your 24" rifle length barrels...

    Make that 110gr FMJ's from the PPU, I ordered 120grs but they sent 110. Should had noticed that.

      Thats pretty good velocity for the 110 grain FMJ.

        Those velocities are a bit high for normal chambers.

        Your bullets may be engaging the lands rather heavily when the rifle goes into battery.

        Check your brass for pressure signs.

        Also, cycle unfired loads through battery and eject them. Check for signs of contact with the lands.

          Velocity looks normal to me for a 24". Most 24" push the factory 123gr in the mid-2600fps region.

          Your ES and SD are really tight too. That would make a really boring 1000yd load on sils.
