Still close to 3,000fps impact velocity I'm sure. Most factory loads these days are pretty hot...especially the premium brand magnum stuff...often handloading has trouble matching the performance.....doesn't make sense. You haven't run them through a chrony? No doubt the bullet did its job and killed but that kind of performance wouldn't convince me they are the best bullet made. The one I posted is more typical I've what I've seen from them at higher impact velocities.
