[QUOTE="Ranger1992, post: 443248, member: 23128"] Thanks Forrest, your comments make sense. Like I said i had to pick something before hunting season and I was out of time. I do plan to go back and work with h4831 and I will try the retumbo. My feeling is that if anything is going to solve my issues with the Berger bullets it will be using a different powder. I will also try the mag primers for this next round also. One thing that I did not mention in this string of comments is that on the Cooper rifle the throat is very long. I cannot even get close to the lands and be able to cycle rounds through the magazine. I measured it a while back but have forgotten the distance. It seems like it was very extreme. I read the article from berger about jumping the bullets but the distances they suggested I could not even get and still function with the magazine. I did have one group that was about an inch at 100 but I believe that it was a fairly low powder charge. The RL22 load was extremely tight so I was stuck on using it till I found something else. Thanks again and if you have some comments on the extreme distance to the lands I'd appreciate it. [/QUOTE]
