105 gr Match BT Target #24428 in 6mm

[Capt. Oblivious]

Hi Guys

Im sitting without about 800 of these 105gr Berger's and im just wondering if any one uses/has used them with any real success on paper/steel.
I have been browsing the web the last couple weeks but there seems to be almost no info regarding this bullet.

I have a couple boxes of 105gr Amaxes left that really shoot well and im just wondering if its worth starting over with the Bergers?
I have done a couple loads with them over a crony and they seem to be doing ok (still need to fine tune the seating depths) but im unsure if I should abandon the Amaxe and concentrate on the Bergers. The bullets will be used for long range work to a 1000y and beyond in my 243, all the other Bergers I shoot in my other rifles have always proofed accurate and consistent at extended ranges. I know every rifle/barrel is different but I would just like to know if any one uses them.

The reason im not shooting the Hybrids is due to my barrel twist rate


Regards

I use the 105 BT target to FF my dasher loads. 31G Varget in Lapua 6mm br brass, False shoulder plus jam. This is THE MOST ACCURATE AMMO/GUN COMBO that I own. I would have shot them at 600/1000 matches if it wasn't so hard to close the bolt (lots of "crush")and the occasional (1 in a 100) case failure do to shoulder cracks.

I shoot them in my 6br out to 500 meters in matches. I think they are an excellent bullet. BTW, I could never get the hybrids to shoot consistently.

I used to shoot them in my 6BR.. They were the MOST accurate bullet next to the 105 Scenar, and a tiny difference at that. Also, you should try the Berger 108's>>>excellent as well.
