I didn't find AR-15 load data Wade but did find this for bolts. Should be a potent little varmint cartridge in an AR platform. Yup and the bolt action loads they set max pressure on at 62000 PSI while it is 52000 osi for the AR, so there will be less velocity from an AR at those pressures
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true Mainstream news might be fun to watch

I’d be a lot more interested in this round if I could see the speeds for a 78g Vmax, the 100+ grain rounds do nothing for me for coyotes. If I want heavy and slow I’ll shoot my Grendel. Hornady says the 75 grain V-MAX can be pushed to 3050fps with 33.5 grains of LEVERevolution. Didn't see a 78 grainer in their latest data. This is their gas gun data; bolt gun data shows a higher MV possible, and pressures up around 62K rather than the 52K for gas guns.

3000 FPS isn’t terrible especially from an 18 inch barrel. I like my 243 at 3300fps better though, really don’t want to have to step down to the 50 grain bullets. That 75 Vmax just wrecks the coyotes

just saw george gardner ga precision is on the bandwagon, hes going to build a ar-15
and
a bolt action which will really make this an effective round.
