Remington Sendero in 7MM STW using Nosler Partitions gives a velocity of 3358 fps with good accuracy. These measurements were taken using my Oehler 33. The Remington has a 26" Bbl.
The center of the screens was 13' in front of the muzzle.
Elevation +-310, Temp mid 90's.

Never did work up a great load for my Sako in 300 Win. but 3000 fps using 180 gr. Nosler Ballistic Tips is very doable. The Sako has a 25" Bbl.
