Has anyone chronied the 223 Hornady Training ammo through a 22" barrel?
If no one has, would I be alright guessing it would be about 3150ish fps?

I have with the steel case stuff, though I doubt the brass is much if any different.

my average was 3151 from my 1:8 22" barrel, interesting. I like the ammo, still very accurate
Mine was from a 21.5" long, 1/8" twist with a Chrony at around 8ft away. Saying it, my speed is at "G1" and yours at "G0", maybe it is the difference.Quote:
