Managed to get out with a Chrony F1 chronograph last week to see what is what.
Was interested to see that most of my MV's (or MV + 10ft) were all lower than I expected
now it matters not to me as I don't dial drops and have a first hand view on what the actual drops are at reasonable stalking ranges.
also wont have me changing loads to chase that velocity. they have all performed well on deer in the field
but we are talking 200fps less than advertised for similar components and barrel length
Only the WinMag is shorter in the barrel and only by 1-2"
the .270 is entire at 23.75"
I couldn't get a reading on the .222, must have been the light...or it is just genuinely too fast and laser like!
Those that have chrono'd loads, how far away from your expected book data have the results been?
