[QUOTE="martinakl, post: 2289333, member: 74115"] [B]Berger 210 HVLD update:[/B] I’m barely feeling the bullet contact the lands at 3.592” COAL. The bullet comes out with the Hornady tool at this measurement *3.592" does fit in the magazine. You could do recommended seating depth test with this bullet (below). By applying a bit more pressure, I got the bullet stuck into the lands at 3.607". *bullet stuck in lands = I get out by hitting butt of stock on counter to dislodge (muzzle pointed up) [B]Berger VLD test recommendations. [/B] Load 24 rounds at the following COAL if you are a hunter (pulling a bullet out of the case with your rifling while in the field can be a hunt ending event which must be avoided) or a competition shooter who worries about pulling a bullet during a match: 1. .010 off the lands (jump) 6 rounds 2. .050 off the lands (jump) 6 rounds 3. .090 off the lands (jump) 6 rounds 4. .130 off the lands (jump) 6 rounds [URL unfurl="true"]https://bergerbullets.com/getting-the-best-precision-and-accuracy-from-vld-bullets-in-your-rifle/[/URL] The 205 Elite Hunter, 215 Hybrid, and 230 Hybrid OTM bullets I'm interested in are "Hybrid." They're supposed to be more jump tolerant than a VLD, "in most cases" [/QUOTE]
