95 grain Berger VLD in a .243 WIN, 3100 - 3200?

[500YardHog]

First off i have a Cooper Phoenix 26in barrel on order in 243 WIN and i was wondering if anybody shoots the 95 grain VLD in a 1 in 10 twist and what kinda velocities can i get ?
Thanks.

I shot the 95 VLD in a 10 tw, they do great. I would not push them past 3150 f/s. any VLD does not like to go fast.

Mark is 3150 the Max load for the 243 or will it push the 95 any harder?I am looking for a good mix of flat shooting and wind bucking to shoot ground hogs my max range would be 600 yards.

I can push the Berger 95gr VLD to 3150fps from my 6BR IMP. I am sure you can get more from a 243
