    F T/R Competition shooting 300yd f class tomorrow with son 15-20 mph

    Re: shooting 300yd f class tomorrow with son 15-20 mph I don't think it will be that big of a variable at 300 yds once he adjusts while getting zeroed. I'd have him stick with the .223 since it is what he will be shooting regularly and is familiar with.

    Re: Berger Load Data v. Varget Load Data etc fyi 45 grains with Winchester brass, CCI BR2 Primers and Berger 155.5 averaged 2833 fps, SD 9 fps. This load did not group well but those are the velocities. Pretty close Darrell! Edit: Typo on velocity corrected.
