I'll be following this, hoping you have the same great results I have had with this ammo. I have been buying it for 6 years, and have dialed it on three different CDS set ups with excellent results out to 400 yards on hunting set ups. I posted my chrono results a few years ago and the velocity was so tight that I was told by a few posters that something had to be wrong with the chrono. If it varies from lot to lot, I haven't had that experience. I dial it through out the year and kill with it. You'll be glad you're going to the trouble to give Leupold good data. It's been a great hunting set up for me.

3115

What length of barrel was getting 300 fps less than the velocity called out on the box?

20 inch from Christensen Arms. The exact number below advertised was 282 if I remember correctly

3115, wow great knowledge (way to good to be a guess). I've used this bullet for about 6 years also but this is my first CDS hope it goes as well as I've heard.

Was this barrel cut? I can't see someone cutting 6" off a great rifle, but over 1/2 of the loss in velocity can be assigned to barrel length. Hornady likely published their #'s based on a 26".

How's the CDS dial working out?

Ran out this morning and stopped 530 yards from our 9x10 steel plate. Was cool to shoot look up grab binoculars and then hear "clank". Not a precision rifle at that distance but I wouldn't hesitate to try a hog or coyote at 500. It does what I was hoping for.

You should spot your hits through the scope. Doing what you are doing is poor follow through, and will cause you to be less accurate. Even if you are hitting, it creates a bad habit.

Just to pass time put in your guess.
I had my friend chrono Hornady's 300 Win Mag SST from my Tikka T3, 23.5 inch barrel, so I can order my CDS from Leupold.
He's a gun builder and long range shooter. He used his LabRadar Ballistic Velocity Doppler Radar Chronograph to get my guns muzzle velocity.
Hornady box claims a muzzle velocity of 3,130 fps. What's your guess on his findings? I'll post actual number tomorrow night.

From reading on here. You better hold of on buying your next CDS lol

Now tell us you're kidding?

Ummm, no.

Pointless buzz kill. Who says you can't have some fun with this?

Have some hornady 178 eldx precision hunter I was given out of an estate. Will shoot it through a cz 550 30-06 at some point hope it’s as good as yalls have been.

@bobcat, tell your son.
