Mr. Postman,

What do you get for velocities from your Lott with factory ammo or handloads? I must obtain 2150 fps with a 500 grain bullet over the chronograph (instrumental velocities) or I deem the load unworthy. Winchester factory 510 grain soft points get about 1950 fps out of my rifle. Pathetic factory ammunition is a problem with many calibres. That includes some very fine Nitro Express calibres.
