I would concurr with those readings, from what I have shot from my Omega...
150 grains of T7 pellets is right at 2400fps

was 1984 fps, which is pretty close to the values shot by you. The median value of 2032 is only 48 fps off from what the formula MV = 2518.4* X ** .344, where X= powder charge in g/ bullet weight in grains. Interesting that the formula doesn't use ballistic coefficients or anything, just bullet weight and charge, but it is pretty close to what was shot with a high BC ML bullet.

Bullet BC would not come into play @ the muzzle - it is down range that BC does its thing....

bowbender6 -
Above you wrote that with 148 grains the MOA was 5" at 82 yds. Was that right?
