105 JLK'S in a 6br

Anyone using these? How are the results? Barrel twist? Jammed or jumped? Your comments will be greatly appreciated!
 
I tried them in my BR and my 6x47L and neither rifle like them. My BR is a 26" krieger and my 6x47L is a 28" Bartlein both 8tw.

I tried them at speeds ranging from 2750-2900 out of the BR with horrible results.
My 6x47 took them up to 3250 and even tho they seemed to do better at faster speeds they didnt do as well as bergers 105's.

As far as powder and the JLK'S , I tried RL15 and Varget out of the BR. In the 6x47 I tried RL15,RL17,H4350. I am sorry to say they just havent been the most accurate bullet in my rifles.
 
I've been shooting 105 jlk's pointed in two 6br's. One is a .237 Broughton 5r 8 twist using 30.5 g of varget and shoots ok. The other is a .236 brux 8 twist using 30.9 g of varget. Missed the ten shot 600 yard nbrsa record by .014 month before last and won the three target heavy gun score last month. So, the 105 jlk's are working for me.
 
My results mirrored R Millers. They wouldn't shoot in either of my 6BR's. I'm staying with the Berger 105 VLD.
