[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 845781, member: 63138"] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Since the Bergers can be a little picky, I think I’ll use a box of 150 Nosler BTs that I have sitting here to see if there is actually a velocity level where the rifle quits shooting in dramatic fashion with those bullets. If I can make that happen then the problem is with the rifle and not the bullets. That is in fact what I expect to find because 3,000 fps just isn’t that fast and a 1 in 10 twist isn’t either. Also, Nosler doesn’t make flaky bullets.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]The only reason I even starting looking at the bullets is because the gun goes bad so dramatically.
