cayugad,every thing you said is true, but my new Omega likes FF to the point that if I want raggy holes at 100yds and 2100 with the250 SW or 2400 with the 50/40 200gr SW or XTP. So I think trying both is a good idea. Lee

well I agree with you also lemoyne.. there is no telling what a rifle will like until you actually shoot the thing. That is some impressive numbers with those shockwaves..

Roskoe,No, thats with 130 APP FFwith the 250 and 140 APP FF with the 50/40 200gr. But my chrony is around 10 years old and I am not sure how accurate for I have no way to calabrat it; I would not even havementioned it but it seems like other people are getting close to the same answers.Lee
