The ELD-M147's were impressive but looking for a little more MV. Hoping for 2,840ish speed with these little pils.

Looks like a fairly steep area you're in.

Barrel length?

Shouldn't be a problem. My daughters 22" is at 2870.

Avg is about 2800-2810 (tel:2800-2810) today. (1,850 rounds through this barrel).
20+ mph wind and the best SD was 15 and 19 for this 5 shot group using factory ammo.
I ran them through the seating die to a 2.155 to ogive. Also tested other lengths but 2.155 was the winner with the Magnetospeed installed. Going to run without in a few. Need to work on my tripod shooting now because it sucks.

Shot below with turrets at zero (above was .2L) with magnetospeed removed. Not much change in elevation. Dang wind!!!

So so far the prime ammo is shooting well. Only got out to 700 yards with a 4.4 mil elevation and 1.5-2.2 mil wind hold left based on indicators. Need to be run these through the seating die for consistent length and test again with minimal influence from wind.
