3000 - 3050 loaded with around 87gr of n570. Just watch your barrel temps because n570 burns hot and long strings of fire will trash your barrel.I have a new AXSR coming in 300 norma. Ive got plenty of berger 230's. I have Lapua cases on their way, and plenty of retumbo.
Anyone else chime in with a new AI 300 NM barrel? I assume right around 3000 fps + or - 30 fps will be pretty good spot?
It is not. The one in the gif has a solid connection to the seat, the Royal Gorge one has flexible cables. I've done the one at the Royal Gorge.

I used to fly fixed wing air ambulance equipped with FLIR and we almost never used it. They’re fine for recon but it’s not something you’d want to use to aviate.Quite possible. Another point that has been made is the they were flying with "NVGs". This I find doubtful because "PAT" army Black Hawks are an elite unit and should be state of the art aircraft. PAT stands for "Priority Air Transport". They are mainly used to transport VIPs and high ranking officers. The crews are select top notch aviators.
Below is an image of one of these helicopters, known as "Gold Tops" (for the paint scheme). You can see a FLIR pod under the chin of the aircraft. That is an incredible and very sophisticated vision system that would negate the use of night vision goggles. The images are displayed on the control panel....

"Supposed" to be. She had what, like 450 hrs total time (it was reported)? It definitely looks like a forced-fit (DEI, etc) to me.
