[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 870333, member: 10291"] You might want to confirm that your chronograph readings are correct. Lighting conditions can produce false readings. Also, seating depth with Bergers can produce differing velocities depending in how deeply the bullet is seated. Are your bullets seated to the same depth as your reference load? If your bullet was seated at a different depth, you will get a different velocity, and will may use a different powder charge. These differences can be seen in some of the loads listed in the Berger Reloading Manual when I compare them to my loads using different seating depth. They explain this effect in their manual.
