That is low. Was it posted on here or elsewhere? Mine shipped today. Gonna give it a sponge paint then start shooting it. Very excited to get it in hand.
I recently noticed that my new rifle is quite a bit under the velocity I expected. Curious to know if anyone else is seeing the same or has any input.
Rifle is a Browning X-Bolt 2 Speed SPR, 20 inch barrel, Silencerco Harvester suppressor, shooting Hornady 147gr ELD-Ms. Last week I finally...
I ended up with an X-Bolt 2 Speed SPR in 6.5 PRC. My findings are pretty much exactly what @Formidilosus noted in his X-Bolt 2 Speed evaluation. The only exception is that my bolt was horribly tight out of the box. Barely got it installed. 100 rounds later and several hundred bolt cycles and...
Picked up a new Tikka T3X lite SS in 223 the other day. This was shots 15-25 through the gun. I was fighting with dust and mirage during this group because I was rushed for time. I was thoroughly impressed given the conditions.
