Does anybody know the actual velocity that they are getting out of their Remington 20" LTR with 168 grain Federal Gold Medal Match?

2470fps. Alt 1442, bp 29.60. I guess my barrel is slow based on others.

Though a slightly different 20" barreled rifle, I fired my 700 AAC-SD with a 20" barrel over the weekend with some Federal Gold Medal Match 168 gr SMK loads. Unsuppressed, it choreographed 2630-2645 fps. Suppressed, it choreographed 2670-2680 fps. I was shooting just above sea-level. Temperature was 85*F.

Thanks for the AAC info. I'm about to sight mine in, sans chronograph.
