Mine is a 28" 1-9tw. I used to be pretty fond of the Bergers till I found a fella in Indiana under Precision Ballistics www.precisionballisticsllc.com (I think that is the right address). His 95gr and 80gr boattails just plain shoot circles around the Bergers in the same weights out of my rifle. ;D I heard that he was moving to Arizona around now so might be having some down time while he moves.
So for 200 yds, I'm using R-17, Norma brass, CCI br primers, and just barely off the lands. Start around 36 gr and see if you can get up to around 40gr or a little better with the 80gr bullets. I've used H4350, and N550 and all three seem to shoot those 80gr well, but the R-17 is faster, cooler, cleaner, and lower ES in my rifle.
Lemme know how it turns out.
