That sounds pretty slow for the charge you are using and by the way your Remington is not designed for smokeless powder. I started with 60grs of IMR4198 and a 300gr Hornady FXT and was getting between 2450 and 2495 fps.

I know it’s not and that’s what the Chrony said as an average for three shots twelve feet from the muzzle . Perhaps the Vhrony was giving false readings I dunno . I also chronographed 225 and 200 grainers with the same powder charges and velocity lessened . Which I thought awful strange at the time .
