Not trying to be a butthole here, but you are wasting your time with Berger bullets in your nice ppc. Use Bart’s 68 gr. Ultra flat base bullets, they are the same price as the Bergers. However, the Bart’s will make that Berger look like 1980s Hornady junk. Try 29 to 30 grains of N 133 with a benchrest primer. My best load is 29.2 gr. at .007 off the lands. Have a great time with your ppc! They are truly one of the most satisfying rounds to reload and shoot.

I would not be comfortable Starting out with 29gr. in a factory rifle. Be careful.

The whole Berger bullets are junk thing is IMO total BS. My friend won this agg with Berger Column bullets and LT32.

I won't knock Bart's as I have shot a lot of them and like them, but those lighter Berger's can be just as wicked. I bought a boat-load of the 63 flat base that were being discontinued several years back to fireform and plink because they were so cheap. Turns out - nothing I have tried in all three guns will shoot any better with those with LT32. Walt Berger told me those weren't even designed for the 6PPC. Oh well....

Ive seen those columns shoot fairly decent back when they first came out

In years back, because they are easy to work with and easy to get, I started a couple new to PPC but otherwise skilled shooters with their first 6PPCs. In both cases, soon after shooting their first teen group (easy conditions) both asked me about better bullets, not because the Berger's were not good, but because they wanted to have something "special". In truth neither were up to the level that the 68s were and are, but they did not realize that for many shooters, as long as the jackets are good, that most bullets are better than they are. They didn't and don't understand the difference between a group and an agg. in terms of what it takes to produce a good one. They thought the ups and downs of their performances were about equipment and components, when both were perfectly fine, and that it their ability to handle the rifle, read the flags, and maintain tune were the real issues. On the other hand, the quest for the magic bullet has probably doubled the average revenues of custom bullet makers. Anyone want to buy some bullets?

I have good results with Berger Column 64,2grs. As good as with Cheek's 66grs and Knight's 68grs. I tried the Bergers, because it's not easy to get the "better" handmade bullet's here in Germany.
I have shot my best 5-shot Group of about 3.25mm (~0.13") at 100m ( ~109 yrd) CTC using 28.0grs of N133 in Norma cases and Fed 205M. The Column`s were seated with 0.01" jump.
The Norma cases seem`s to have not so much volume like the Lapua`s. With 29.2grs of N133 and a long droptube, the case has 100% fillrate with seated bullet.

Btw the Gun is an old Seely Masker. Build in 1981 and has still it`s FIRST barrel on it. I bought it used and i don`t know how much round`s are shot with it. I myself shot 1700 rds with this oldtimer. It is from good old times, when quality comes first.

Sorry for my bad English.
