Oh that\’s good to know! What\’s your elevation where you were shooting them? We were going to be shooting 1K at sea level, so I was a little concerned. I ran the number through Applied Ballistics and they seemed to be right on the edge of supersonic.

We are using N140 and getting about 2,630 fps. I\’m pretty sure Varget has a little more energy and can produce better velocities though. We did try N540 & PP2000 but just could not get the accuracy of the N140.
