I wanted to see what kind of speed I was getting out of my hand rolled 95gr Barnes TTSX with H-322 in different barrels. I was able to get in a 9.25 Rock Creek Barrel and a 18" ***. Will shoot the 16" *** barrel tomorrow.
I am using 3 shot strings is that enough or should I go to 5? This is all about how fast they go and not about accuracy. Will do that another time. Was shooting at my house suppressed so the people around me would not get crazy. I do,live in the country but want to be good with noise. Will post all 3 tomorrow. The Magetospeed is very easy to use with a suppressor . So,far I am extremely happy with ease of uses since I am shooting out of my sniper hide on the second floor of my house.

My wife gets really crazy when I shoot at my house. She says it makes too many holes in the walls.:p

Cool, I have used it a couple of time (friends at range day). Very simple and accurate.

Go for 5 round strings. I normally get a better average with my Pac that way.

Excellent! I always figure my Bison 8.5 is 400 less than my *** 16" and this proves it out...Thanks

Yep that is what. I was thinking rounds are all about the same.

I've got the V3, great to use, I hear there is a V3 version coming out.

I only load test with the V2, for grouping I take it off as I feel it changes the harmonics hanging off the end of the barrel.

I believe it told me in my manual that there would be some POI shift but groups would be good to measure. It is sure easy to shoot compared to setting up tripod and leveling and hoping light it good.
