Now I see why this stuff is supposed to be magical.

It has pixie dust sprinkled on top.

First trip to range tinkering with both the 6mm Creedmoor and the 22 Creemoor.
Velocities were impressive.
6mm CM with 105 Berger Hybrids 24 inch barrel 3311fps was where I stopped. My current load is running 3150 ish.

Took a picture of the chronograph on the 22 Creedmoor
This is 75 gr Amax 24 inch barrel.

Add 280 Remington to the list. Ran 168gr Berger at 2936fps 22inch barrel 1.5 inch group at 200 yards.
That's with a chrono attached to a sporter wight barrel
