[QUOTE="Nimrodmar10, post: 558438, member: 36369"] I hate to admit defeat but I finally gave up on the Bergers. Figuring that Remington might have learned something with their factory loads, I decided to try the Swift 150 gr. Sciroccos. Having not had a lot of luck with the Retumbo, H4831sc or H1000, I tried the US-869 with the Swifts in my Sendero. Loading 104.5 gr. of US-869 with the Swift Scirocco 150 gr. to an overall length of 3.60" is giving me groups of 1/4-1/2" at 100 yards. The velocity is running at 3325 fps which is what the Remington factory loads are doing. The chronograph is showing very consistent loads with extreme spreads of 13-15 fps and a SD of 5 for 5 shot groups. These loads are for my gun and should be approached with caution. My next step is to start stretching them out for distance and see how they compare to the drop tables. [/QUOTE]
