[QUOTE="HoytemanPA, post: 110252, member: 286"] I had 210 Bergers blow up in a 10 twist no freebore 300 Weatherby at 2930 in the middle of a match. The first two times was with between ten and 20 rounds through the chamber. I figured I must have hit a bird on the way to 1k when all ten didn't show up on the target. Then two matches later I had a guy spotting behind me during my relay and he saw round 9 come apart at around 100 yards. So I cleaned and put another 20 down after the match. Rounds 18 and 19 blew up. Only use them for woodchucks now. I used 220 SMK for a year and went to the 210 matchkings this year. I have put a hundred or so through it and 35 rounds through it last Saturday, without cleaning, with the same charge and powder as my previous test. Performance similar to Berger. But no blowups. I played alot with the 30-378 in factory mode. 200 gr Accubonds with 106gr of Retumbo was what it liked. I assumed they tolerated the jump better than others I tried. Good luck, Shummy [/QUOTE]
