Back in BHam!!!
Any one else having issues out of this ammo? My buddy James picked up a 100 rounds to try it through his rifle and it was horrible. Almost a 200fps ES in velocity, grouped erratic at 100y.

It's not the rifle b/c his rifle bugholed with FGMM that day.

What does ES stand for? and how erratic? I bought a box for hunting with the long range stick but haven't shot any yet.

Extreme Spread (ES) = Fastest shot through the chrono - slowest shot

Ah, thanks Josh.

One thing that caught my eye... the .308 FPS listed on the Superformance exceeds their standard SST cartridge offering in .30-06. It'd be intersting to see some actual chrono results.
