dont know couldnt pull my chrono out , and i wasnt really to worried about it yet was just looking for a range were they shot decent . at 28.5 they are good so ill work in that area in .1 increments , from now on ill use the chrono
what i do know is 130g projectile is going just over 2600fps at 29.2g's of the powder im using and a 140g projectile moves at 2400 fps with 28g of powder
so if i had to make a guess atm id say theese are right in the 2500 fps range

im shooting these out of an ar in 6.5 grendel
Finally got around to shooting just a few more of the 135g a-tips out of the 6.5 grendel. just 4 rounds@100y .tried to beat the winds this am but they are already over 30mph so this was rushed af,was just no way to keep the wind from moving me around ,wasn't trying to b accurate but just get an idea and Chrono numbers .. 2512, 2515, 2519, 2515 fps for the 4 rounds , they show promise for sure
28.6g of alliant power pro varmint cci #400 hornaday brass oal of 2.260
if it wasnt for the wind moving me and the rifle around this would have been a excellent group
wont be able to push theese any harder and infact im going to back down to either 28.5 or 28.4g of ppv ive tested 28.5 and its good , im going to shoot 28.4 and see if its any better , either charge will put me just under 2500fps , and with the supressor i should be just over
