    @ANTSMAN - the move to AI might only get you ~40 -50 fps more especially with 22in tube, not saying dont do it, just dont set your hope too high. My 24in 280AI get me 2980 fps with N560 and the old 162AMAXs. That gets me ~875 yards before hitting 1800 fps which is what is use as a default limit for how far to push it. With 22in tube you should be north of 2900 fps

    The barrel length will be the issue. My Ackley drives a 150 LRAB at 3130 but this is a 26" bbl. Sure kills well.
