DFOSLAND: thank you for the reply
Noticing we are comparing a 24" Bolt action barrel vs a 18" gas gun barrel with this data from the Hornady app.
Looks to me as expected. little advantage in terms of velocity w the bolt gun with this long projectile.
My rifle barrel tends to run fast. My expectation is that I will do well with Hodgdon Gas gun data & Ill be able to run up to, max grain charge weights with the gas gun data as opposed to 1 grain below max used w Hornady bolt gun data. Suppose I'll just need to put in the time & give these a try with the garmin & on paper.
Temps made it up to +6 deg F here today with 20 MPH winds on average. Suppose I am waiting for nicer weather & living vicariously from others in the mean time.
Thanks again for sharing!
