What do you think your impact velocity might have been? Just wondering.

Good shooting and superb performance for a little bullet. I got a bunch of those Noslers last winter and have not had a chance to test them yet. This is very promising.

Nice harvest.

I certainly am impressed with the performance.

I just bought a couple hundred projectiles to handload. This looks very promising.

My assumption is that we are talking 2700 FPS at the muzzle, but that is not proven. I will soon use my chronograph and know what the muzzle velocity is on this load.

65 yd velocity will be around 2600 or so.
