Sorry, no help to your topic.
But couldn't help add: [I]"Paranoia! Paranoia! Everybody's coming to get me Just say you never met me"[/I] after seeing your sig line. |

I have some ordered to try in a new Krieger VarMatch barrel with 1/7.7 twist. If you'd like, I'll let you know how it performs.

I'll have to try those as well. I have had little success with Hornady's 75 gr. HPBT Match bullet.

Someone posted this same question on tacticalforums.com's wound ballistics thread. Both DocGKR and Gary from www.ammolab.com posted that they hadn't tested it cause they hadn't been able to acquire any yet. But they had seen the ad.

Hey Lumpy, can you ask Doc where the yaw/fragmentation process begins with this load?

I ordered a couple boxes of it from Georgia Precision to use at 600 yards in highpower matches with my 1/9. Haven't had a chance to try it out yet, though.

Temporary cavity began around 7 cm and extended to 20 cm. Maximum temporary cavity stretch was 10 cm at a depth of 13 cm. |

This Berger bullet, is it the one that is the USMC Rifle Teams pet favorite?

Ive been informed that despite factory claims, it needs at least a 1/8 twist to stabilize.
