I did some chrono work with my Paramount a while ago. Shot an average speed of 2.251 fps with a standard deviation of 7 fps. This was with 105 grains by weight of Blackhorn 209, a large rifle primer and a 285 grain ELR. Shot a decent group (don’t have any photos). Could probably squeeze a little...

GLWS!
