[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 996686, member: 307"] I actually tried both the 208 A-Max and 210 VLD on the same day, same load, everything. Just cleaned in between the two loads, and the Berger's groups were actually a little tighter. I was so dang impressed with the 140 A-Max(6.5-284) that I just knew the 208's would be the bullet that would guarantee my name in the Redneck Shooting Hall of Fame! So, I tried the 208 again. My results aren't conclusive or final but it's looking like it ain't meant to be. (Hall of Fame thingy) :). I am getting .564" at 81.0gns and that's good, but IMO, just good. I haven't tried them at any distance yet but it would be interesting to see how they group at 500yds or so. I'm at a point where I need to make a decision. H1000 is a consideration but the chrono will tell the tale and sway me big time. I love accuracy but I need speed! [/QUOTE]
