.308 True Velocity ammo

I am interested to learn how they can get 2850fps using the 168 nosler comp bullet
in a 24" barrel. Seems pretty high to me. This info is on their web site.
The velocity is possible, I'm getting 2920 fps with Berger 168 gr 22" bolt 308 9 twist and the 308 win 27" 12 twist does 2900 fps easily ... but mainly I shoot 200 gr SMK or 225 eldm and 208 eldm... is where it's at in the 308 Win for me,.. if I'm going way down range.

Their ES [called MD in the table above] and their SD didn't quite match their claims.
Accuracy was way off, but it was also a lot more with the Federal - I would have thought that would be under an MOA. But, if I've got it right, the rifles were all factory stock.
