[QUOTE="sbranden, post: 2637249, member: 7557"] Agree, thanks for doing this and publishing your results. Those 70 Bergers look very impressive! I would love to know more about the exact load you ended up with for the Berger 70's with H4350. Do you know how much jump you were giving these? Have a comp measurement, or OAL for us? Do you know how fast they were traveling? (Liked the speed you were getting with the 70HH's.) Was it Alpha brass again you were using? What primers (large or small rifle)? Standard or magnum? What charge of H4350 was it again for these 70 VLDs? Everyone has to do their own load dev obviously, but I'm about to order a 1in8 26" barrel in 22 creed moor now and finding something in the 69-80 range... or perhaps I could even shoot 60 V-MAX, or 60TMK, up to the 85.5's on the high end, not sure. But I will be looking for the best bullet at 500yds, in wind/all conditions really, that will kill small varmints instantly - I mean unplugged. Like a ligtning strike. No penciling through, no crawl-offs. Don't want to have to count on head shots either, where I'm always the biggest variable in accuracy. And I do of course worry about ricochet with these longer, harder, higher BC bullets, so this will be something I watch as well as I get into some of my own field testing next summer. Thanks again for anything more you can share. [/QUOTE]
