Velocity is where I'm a skeptic. Not a doubter, just a skeptic.

I've got to look at my data, but I believe I'm pushing the 110 SMK 2640 from a 22" barrel, and it's a warmish load.

Yes. We currently are able to get 2500-2600fps with 129-130gr from a 24" Grendel using CFE223 or LVR.

With a beefed up action and more allowable COL, I see 2500fps with the .257" 131gr as realistic.

With the BR Improved/Dasher-like case, I don't think 2700fps is out of reach at all.

They're currently getting 2940fps from .257 CM and .257x47 Lapua, and 3140fps from 25x284 with 1/7.75" twist.

They confirmed BC at 1000yds with an Oehler 88.
