95gr MK in .243

Just got 200 to try. Just curious if anyone has any loads yet. I usually shoot 95 VLDs. I measured a few base to ogive and wasn't to impressed compared to the Bergers. I found .008 over 10 bullets with no real group forming. Thanks for any info.

Shot 30 MK's and 25 more Bergers on Sunday. All rounds were fired over a chrono and the MK's were WAY better than the Bergers. One charge had 4 shots in a row same speed. I'm still faily new to this stuff but so far the MK's seem to be better in my rifle. All were shot with H4350, BR2, and jammed 15 thou.

I like the 95gr Bergers out of my 243. I shot 5 through the crony on Sunday. Here are my results 3030, 3026, 3024, 3030, 3029. The first shot was from a cold,~ 30 degree f)barrel. My load is 42.3gr of H4831sc with cci 200 primers and Norma brass. Rifle is a Savage 12FV.
 
I've never tried any powder but H4350. I've tried 210Ms and the BR4s. I have also tried everything from 5 thou off to 30 thou in the lands. I only have tried Lapua brass also. The rifle is a remmy vls,9.125 twist). I'd be willing to try the Bergers with H4831 since I have some. Are you jamming yours? Thanks for any info.

I have some smokin hot loads I've been shooting in a Custom DPMS LR10 or what ever you want to call it with a 22" 8.5 twist Krieger.
44.2gr 4350
45.8gr RE19
Win cases, CCI primers, OAL 2.760" The DMR chamber was cut just shy of max headspace. Those loads and a few more are hitting 243 AI velocities at 3130-3200 and 1/2" groups. I know not great for a bench gun but great at that velocity from a 14lb AR.
