[QUOTE="Lrt307, post: 1205927, member: 57068"] I can appreciate the fact that Berger has stepped up the volume and has lots of bullets now available. what I do not appreciate is the variance of measurement from base to ogive of Berger bullets. I had measured lots of bullets with huge measurement differences. I spoke with Phil about this and Phils comment was to sort all of the bullets out and group the same or close to dimensions together and then adjust your seater die as needed to achieve same off the lands dimensions. My comment to that is how about I buy a JLK or Hornady ELD X which perform very well also but I can set my seater die and leave it. I went thru 500 JLK bullets and the tolerance was within .001 I also went thru 400 ELD X in the 300 212 bullet and guess what also within .001 tolerance. I had some Berger 180 in 7mm that were .007 variance and a few that were .013 variance. Now dont get me wrong I do like the way the Bergers shoot but come on man!!!!gun) [/QUOTE]
