I run 2800 fps MV out of a 22 inch Model 70 featherweight barrel, using 140 grain Ballistic Tips.. my load is 44 grains of IMR 4895..
for heavier bullets, I run 40 grains of 3031 from out of an older Hornady Manual. according to the manual, it will run 175 grain RNs at 2400 fps, but my rifle chronographs those same loads at 2650 fps, and 160s at 2700 fps...
same in my Ruger 77's 22 inch barrel.
