Also, I am going to look what 308 rifles we have, and might do the same test in these as well.

dancingKeep reading my Threads, Saeed, as they may inspire you to do more testing. clapIt may not be gainful employment but it might keep you busy and happy. I will sleep sound and fullfilled tonight having this thought in mind. beerroger

OK, then, 211 920 fps (thanks MR, I suspect that someone may throw in some extremes on the weights, as I believe SAEED has done to Walterhog on occasion)


Hah!
Looks like I should have stayed with first guess.


I noticed that, but I didn't want to rub salt in the wound.

Don't you remember your seventh grade math teacher telling you that you should always stick with your first guess?

Hunting in Africa is an adventure. The number of variables involved preclude the possibility of a perfect hunt. Some problems will arise. How you decide to handle them will determine how much you enjoy your hunt.

Just tell yourself, "it's all part of the adventure." Remember, if Robert Ruark had gotten upset every time problems with Harry
Selby's flat bed truck delayed the safari, Horn of the Hunter would have read like an indictment of Selby. But Ruark rolled with the punches, poured some gin, and enjoyed the adventure.

The difference in velocity between the rifles is 0, now if you had asked about the ammo----??
BTW which ammo sample gets dropped? 14 was mentioned but 15 are listed.
