Yeah that's been my experience with the temp stuff. In NH it can be 95' in the summer and 0' in the winter, and I'm too lazy to have different loads for different seasons. My mk12 mod 1 runs about 2750 with 8208 so I figured this should run mid 2600s which is more than fine.
I stocked up on like 10lbs of it over the summer when it hit stock again. Should last me a few thousand rounds.
Good catch! Updated to correct i! I doubt it will be an issue. It's definitely shooting well enough for what I would expect.
It does not, that is the top end of an 8208 charge. it should be getting around 2650fps once it settles. It is definitely slow right now. Several online videos said their barrel sped up by 100fps around 400 rounds in.
My previous barrel appeared to speed up around the 500 round mark. Hopefully yours does as well.
Black River Tactical chrome lined. I am at 238 on my current barrel (12.5" AR Performance) and have not seen any velocity increase. I expect to see it around 4-500, maybe less.
I think you are gonna dig it. I am really enjoying it so far. I'm gonna put another 100rds of blasting through it, wipe the bore, refoul, and chronograph to see where it has settled around 500rds in.
I get 2750 fps with black hills 77tmk out of a 16” Douglas fwiw. Stand 1 is 50 or more fps faster I’d have to look
@Rudy Gonsior Is Ridgeline going to do any deals for BF? I’m looking to buy an upper and don't want to buy one this week if they’ll be any kind of sale on them next week.
