I finally got to shoot some reloads over the chrony, the short barrel on the No5 got 2402 fps, 2400 fps.  The bullets were the old 180 grain Dominion Sabretip bullets with 43 grains of IMR 4895 to launch'em.
These were safe and showed no pressure in my 303, but, as usual, start  lower and work up safely.
This little rifle will be on my treks out gold panning, it oughta keep Yogi from wanting to steal my picnic basket......LOL
