200 Berger Hybrid FTR loads?

[broncman]

Processing all my components for the coming year. I have been using the 185 juggernauts with good results. I had originally throated my rifle for the 215's but could not tame them. If I dropped down a node, then they were of no ballistic advantage to my 185 load.

Now that I have some more time on the gun I would like to revisit a heavier bullet.

Anyone using the 200 hybrids successfully? What velocities are you seeing? Hopefully my schedule this year will allow me to shoot more matches.

Get with Don Diffey (Whatsthediff) on this site. He has an excellent load for them. He will be glad to help you out.

Most guys are running them 2630 to 2700 ftps give or take depending on twist, barrel length, etc......They're a great bullet.

How is the tuneability compared to the 185's?

The current F-T/R World Champion won while shooting them in the velocity band mentioned in one of the earlier responses.

I've shot them now in 3 different barrels and they shot very well in all of them......I personally find them easy to tune and in my current barrel they shoot just as good or better than juggernauts.
