Berger Load Info

Post by jbpmidas on Sat 12 Nov 2011 - 10:48

Has anyone else requested load info from Berger? SGMJody got some and their data seems off! They quoted a max Varget load of 41.2 under a 185 and that this was a 101.7% charge. I've been loading 43.1 grains of Varget under a 175 SMK and could hear the powder shaking in the case. I was also only loading to mag length of 2.80" OAL. What gives?

I had emailed berger about some bullet info and told them what caliber i was loading for. Their info must have been on the conservitive side cause i ended up 3 grs over their max in 300wm.
Just start there and work it up.
My 270 shot its best 4grs over listed max in my sierra manual and still not even flatening the primers in the least.
