Fixing to start on load development for the 140grn Berger Hunting VLD. I am shooting 140 grn Accubonds with 82grn H1000 at the moment, any hotter, then I get pressure signs (sticky bolt) especially in this mild, 100+degree Texas heat. Also have H 4831SC, IMR 7828 and Ramshot magnum, any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Will jam bullets and then slightly back off of lands to just touching so that if I need to eject a loaded round, I won't worry about pulling the bullet and dumping powder into magazine.

Will back off of this and start working up again just don't want to waist to much powder bullets and primers.

well it looks like 82 grn H-1000 works for this bullet. I'm going to check it out on some pigs in a couple of weeks.

Hey Harold, I'd be interested in hearing how the Berger Bullets perform on the Hogs. Stuff like, did they make an Exit and what happens when a Shoulder is the Entry Point.

What kind of Hearing Protection will you be wearing while Hunting?

Good Hunting and clean 1-shot Kills.
