[QUOTE="Aussie, post: 120384, member: 2447"] Coyboy , Presumably the Nosler manual refers to their 95 gn Ballistic Tip . The Berger VLD has a much shorter bearing service and appears capable of being pushed to considerably higher velocity with similar pressure . Most of my research and personal experience would suggest that best accuracy with this projectile comes at under 3150 FPS though . With maximum loads (by my definition) I can get 3700 FPS with 70 grain Noslers and not far short of that with the (short bearing surface) 75 V Max .I was not questioning your 68gn load . Interesting that you can get 3600 FPS with an 85 grainer . Both of the 80 grain projectiles that I have tried top out at a little over 3400 and the 87 V Max at around 3350 in my rifle . [/QUOTE]
