[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1330778, member: 64108"] This is their protocol for target shooters(who jam and seat loose). The hunting test is similar but I can't find it, start a few thou off. --------------------------------- For target competition shooters (for whom it is practical to seat into the lands), Berger recommends the following test to find your rifle’s VLD sweet spot. Load 24 rounds at the following COAL: 1. .010″ into (touching) the lands (jam) 6 rounds 2. .040″ off the lands (jump) 6 rounds 3. .080″ off the lands (jump) 6 rounds 4. .120″ off the lands (jump) 6 rounds Berger predicts that: “One of these 4 COALs will outperform the other three by a considerable margin. Once you know which one of these 4 COAL shoots best then you can tweak the COAL +/- .002 or .005.” [/QUOTE]
