<strong>I stopped at the range today and chronographed a couple of rounds of Lapua VPT 58 in my Glock 17L.The temperature was close to 60 degrees F and my chronograph was 10 ft from my muzzle.

The velocity was 1223 and 1233 fps,so I don't think my recollection of 1275 fps was very far off if at all because the 1275 fps was in the heat of the day in the summer probally 90 degrees F or more and the chronograph screens a couple of feet from the muzzle.

I just checked a few rounds out of a couple of boxes of ammo for overall length and it varied from 1.159" to 1.1635".

Your Finnish ammo clocks out like +P or even +P+ ammo with that 123gr bullet. OAL isn't even equal to standard American specs. I wonder just what this ammo's was loaded for: pistol, machine gun?
