Absolutely! I don't remember the temps but it was in March in Georgia. Underwood rates their 305's @ 1325fps but you aren't going to get 1325 from a 3" barrel. You will easily get 1200fps though!

I'd post a pic of my M29 but it's identical to HamHands's M29!

In Alabama, March temperature could easily be 85 F.
