Chronographed the Remington 120 gr. Cor Lokt factory load in a Weatherby MkV UltraLight 25-06 today.
Average velocity was 2919 fps out of the 24" tube.

I once chronographed IVI 7mm RM 150gr out of a 26" tube and it was under 2900fps :?
Hell, you can get more than that with a 160gr X bullet form a 24" barrel.
Unless you are loading 160 gr XLC's. 3150 average out of my Ruger M77 II. Cuts through moose like #### through a goose.

What load are you using? I don't have a new Barnes manual and that little piece of paper that comes in the XLC box isn't much good. :| I loaded some up with IMR 7828 and they clocked in at just over 2900fps, which was about 50fps under what the little paper told me. No pressure signs and .75" groups.
