[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2871762, member: 25831"] I thought about it with a 215 Berger once with my Ruger with the shorter mag box. Long load/single shot and fill the magazine with shorter loaded ones for when I was walking in. I realized even at the reduced velocity of the shorter rounds, it still wasn't giving up enough to matter. In this case, zero with your long range Berger, and stuff the mag with the Hammers. Any oppourtunity to sset up and take a shot, use the Berger. Quick woods type shooting, use the Hammer. For my Sherman I am working with the 213gr Hammer. For the realistic velocity I am getting with the Berger and the Hammer, I am only losing about 50-75 yards to the Berger, based on my app. Not enough for me to care about. If it was a few hundred, maybe worth considering. Berger doesn't shoot well in it so that was the easy choice. [/QUOTE]
