There's calculators online for working stuff like this out. With two 6lb rifles... 123gr @ 2500ft/s = 10.4ft/lb force @ 10.5ft/s velocity. 120gr @ 3000ft/s = 18ft/lb force @ 14ft/s velocity. ...

Yeah you definitely want to check the neck thickness on those. The new neck is going to be made from a lot of the old shoulder material of the 28N and that could be a fair bit thicker than the...

With 160's I was able to get 2750 using Reloder 16 from a 20" barrel. With ADI powder, a 165gr bullet, and a shorter barrel, I echo what everyone else is saying: those speeds sound about right. ...

There's no big hollowpoint, polymer tip, or exposed lead to start them off expanding reliably. So they can pencil through stuff. The jackets are pretty thin too. So if they do start to expand,...
