[QUOTE="kiwi3006, post: 398125, member: 8927"] My personal opinion is that the Berger is a long range bullet. It is built for high BC and to open easily when the velocity has dropped right down. Start it as fast as you can so that you can reach out as far as possible. The Berger should open up out to 1800 fps, at 3000 fps muzzle velocity you will getting out to 900 -1000 yds. These are not the attributes needed for a close range shot. If you are shooting things up close(less than 100yds) save your money and use a bullet like Hornady SST, Sierra gameking or similar. They will give just as much performance. If you are dead set on the Berger and won't be shooting them at long range then yes stick with your current velocity. Stu. [/QUOTE]
