Oh, does my .222 love Berger bullets. It placed 3 rounds in a triangle with each leg of the triangle about 1 3/4" at 520 yards on a freshly painted steel bowling ball target. This was done at the range at Homestead Florida, temperatures were in the mid 90s with (thankfully) almost no wind.
The bullets were Berger 55 grain target bullets propelled by Viht. N133 in Lapua cases Fed match primers.
This is not a fancy high end rifle, just a heavy barrel rifle built from my dad's first rifle's action, a McGowan barrel + a LOT of hard work.
