I am shooting a tikka t3x in 7mm-08 using hornady American whitetail ammo. Yesterday I shot through a chronograph and found it to be about 175fps slower than the published box data of 2840fps. Is this something to worry about or evaluate further? I shot 6 times with the following velocities
2633. 2657. 2661. 2736(this round did not group as well as the other). 2682. 2674. For an average of 2673
if I remove the 2736 the 5 shot average is 2661 fps.
I am planning to order the Leopold cds turret even though I am comfortable with moa and would like to be as accurate with my data as possible. Should I shoot through the chrono more? Or use the data I have of 2673/2661?
