Wild, over 60 rounds mine is avg 2795

Guess they send me the slow barrels, I’m always 75-100fps slower than everyone else in every tikka barrel

Mine sped up at 125 rounds. About 50fps I don’t even start load development until 100 rounds.

Yeah not a new barrel here either

I've found stainless tikkas to be a lil faster than the blued versions oddly but both stil 50-100fps behind where they should be.
