Next time we go to UNSC let's try to bring that puppy. I've been interested to see what my gun is shooting.

If I was a betting man, I would say you are getting 2800 fps +/- 50 fps.   :tup:

I shot 76 grains of h1000 with a 208 eldm, velocity was 2766 out of a 26 inch barrel. This is a brand new bartlien barrel so I would expect it to speed up. My got load is 77.5 grains of h1000, velocity is 2871.

So out of 24.3 inch barrel with 75gr of H1000 ive got 2720fps. Wondering if its enough power for bear, elk up to 600 yards or so.

Yes, if you can hit them at that range, it will kill them.   :tup:
