[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 313962, member: 704"] Yes both of those rifles snd a 22 inch 308 and an 18 inch 308 loaded with 200 gr ELD-X. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Yes, and I was expecting 50fps per inch. I suppose different powders would give 25 fps and some 100 fps per inch. Its the only thing I can think of. The fellow I have been hunting with for 40 years bought the Ruger Predator with the 22 inch barrel. I forget what he is getting with factory, but one day when we were chronograohing I told him try this. It was my 140 ELD-M loaded with R26 shich gives ne 3035 in a 26 inch barrel. I was hooeing he would get 2850. He got 2977 which really left me scratching my head. I am still scratching my head over that one. I need to chronograph my 24 inch with that load. I was hooeing gor 2900 with it. Now I wonder if for some crazy reason his shorter barrel will beat mine. I dont know. [/QUOTE]
