Good point and duly noted.


I'll take 100 fps if i can get it safely. There are ways to get there too sometimes. Can be a combo of throat, type of rifling, bullet coatings and powder choices.

That said I don't look for it on hunting rounds... 100 fps won't make enough difference to worry about to normal distances.
