[QUOTE="Canadian Bushman, post: 927279, member: 41122"] I found a nice load using 46.4 gn of re 17 thats been pretty consistent. I did a seating test and found the 215's are much easier to shoot consistenly at different depths than other bergers ive played with in the past. Which was good because after the test i noticed my scope was moving. Out of the 20 shots fired for seating depth at 5 different depths ES was 37 and SD was 9. I chose to run the bullet on the lands until i can do another seating test because ive gotten good accuracy and velocity spreads within the first .04 of jump. Then i went to go verify some drops because i just couldnt wait to see how the 215 flies, and i was sick of shooting groups through a chrono. Here are the results and some more gun porn. Lapua case Cci 200 primer 46.4 gn re 17 Berger hybrid 215. +.000 jump Mv = 2660 The shots on steel were from 607 and 898 in 6-12 mph, 3/4-full value wind at sea level, its obvious which is which, and were the first shots taken over 100 yds with this rifle.
