[QUOTE="jmden, post: 324489, member: 1742"] MR, I wish I was getting that speed. With 94.7g (~3.85 OAL and -.010 off lands) the GM215M is cratered pretty well, but either no ejector pin mark or the very faintest of marks on some cases. I think the FED primers are pretty soft. I just set primers in the cases for the third time yesterday and they are as tight and consistent as ever--no noticeable primer pocket expansion. I shot a 94.5g load the other day at the range at 300yd prone with bipod and rear bag that I use while hunting (keep in mind this is a unbraked factory gun with close to 1400 rnds through it) after 2 foulers, managed to keep the next 20 rounds in a sub MOA group with quite a few of those going in to a large ragged hole. Still working on consistent shooting form--who isn't? Edit: Just saw this post: [URL]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f19/berger-168-vld-results-elk-48215/#post324492[/URL] Hope these 210's don't do that.
