I was gonna chrono my load today, but got busy with chores, one of them cleaning the rifle, and now it's cleaned and locked away. I was wondering if someone could give me an educated guess with Quick Load?

The round is 308 Win, loaded with a 150gr Nosler E Tip bullet (Nosler says it delivers pressures compatible with Accubond loads), in front of a charge of 45gr of IMR 4895. COAL is 2.845" to keep it .050" off the lands. Primer is CCI Large rifle.

Any info is appreciated. Oh, yes, bout forgot, it's fired from a 20" tube. I have been guestimating it at 2700-2750fps

Thanks

Does quick load not estimate velocity? I thought maybe it did.

It was right around $150 shipped. Shipping was any where from $8 to $45 or so depending on how fast you wanted it. Don't remember exactly, these are just ballpark figures.
