[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 324746, member: 2011"] I understand that Berger is considering a heavier 277 bullet and will most probably come up with something that will handle the velocities of the WBY and WSM. However, they will have to kick things up a BIG notch to handle AM velocities. I try to load DOWN the Bergers to around 3200 FPS MV and can't do it. The powder tried was 7828ssc but the charges were so low that I got hang fires very frequently. Thus the 140s w/a full charge of 7828ssc is the ticket. Any of the other stick powders in any reasonble amount bridge and pressures sky rocket. [/QUOTE]
