Looking for a general idea of velocity with Benchmark
#30

Based on general recommendations I've seen throughout the WWW, I would have thought the results were juxtaposed, but I have confirmed my findings a few times.

Same here. I took mine to just shy of the max from the only published data I can find(Hodgdon and Lee, I know I need a different book, but I'm saving for a house, so every penny counts) and the velocity seems less than stellar, while the groups are amazing. I'm trying to find a way to replicate the accuracy with a slower powder, but so far I've not had much luck. What kind of speeds are you getting with Benchmark and the 123s?
