Sheepdog ammo
« on: May 18, 2009, 09:33:13 PM »
Good stuff - I chronographed some just to see what it was:

2647
2581
2590
2568 Low
2662 High

2610 Avg (milspec is 2600)

Standard deviation was 42

Not bad at all for factory ammo.

The SD on my handloads is between 21 and 26.

And it shoots really well - I was plinking at a can and I could hit it every time offhand just fooling around. Probably shooting at around 60 yards?

Hi Steve,

What caliber?

Name that round and rifle guess:  .308, 175 grain, out of Remmy 700?
