    Is my batch of 8208 really slow?

    Hi all

    Running 55gr hornady sp's out of a howa mini 20" barrel. A touch over max with 8208 and I'm only seeing 2920fps which seems really slow compared to load data(even allowing for the shorter barrel) and what others are reporting even locally. Might I have a dud batch? anyone else experienced this?
