[QUOTE="varmintH8R, post: 774518, member: 39801"] I am not a ballistician, but I struggle with the "bullet settling in" theory (which I too have heard). You can always test it by moving out to 300 and seeing what you get. It sounds like you tried OAL adjustments - did you check out the sticky on Bergers at the top of the reliading forum? It has a good system to try. I have a few guns that just don't like certain bullets. You might try some 300gr SMK's and see if your rifle has a preference. The rear bag I use is filled with sand, and is STIFF. Seems weird that a bag isn't an improvement over an unsupported rear, but weird has been known to happen . . . [/QUOTE]
