Anyone measured velocity of the Black Hills 556 69 tmk out of a 16” barrel? Just bought 100 rounds to see what accuracy is like out of my recce build.

You're best chrono'ing it from your barrel, as variables in your setup will not match those of others.

Just be aware that 69 TMK does not have the same terminal ballistics as the 77 TMK. It is not suitable as a replacement outside of shooting paper targets.
