I should have been out bowhunting but I couldn't pass up a perfect morning for load/chrono work. No wind and temp. at 19*F when I started and finished at 21*F.

Four rifles were checked and only one was somewhat disappointing, my Camo Apex usually shoots better but maybe it was just me. Sometimes Barnes TEZs will give you a flyer, I think it is the hardness of that particular bullet but I don't know because these weren't sized.

3 shot groups. Each rifle was shot once then the next one shot. All rifles are smokeless 45 cal. The TEZs were from pack to bore with a heavy knurl, the BCBs were given a heavy knurl then FF sized.

Avg. muzzle velocity's
Black Apex 2582
Camo Apex 2564 (all 3 shots were 2564 for a 0 ES, I had to double check my #'s and all are correct)
Red RemBrux 2665
Grey RemBrux 2673
