Berger Bullet for Short Range

[gsg5pk]

I normally shoot 175 LRBT and 185 LRBT for F-TR.

I had tried by load 175 LRBT to shoot 200 yards, the result was .2 MOA but with this distance, my 168 SMK can make smaller group than other 175 SMK , 175 LRBT or 185 LRBT.

Now berger just discontinue 168 BT then which projectiles will be suitable for 200 yards?

155.5 Fullbore
155 Hybrid
168 Hybrid


My rifle was chamber with .342 nk , .168 fb , 1-30 and Bartlein 5T 1:11.25" tw (.299/.308 Bore)

I'm certainly no expert in this area so keep that in mind.

Here a while back I was looking for something to shoot <300 yards with my 12 twist F T/R rifle. On a whim I tried some Berger 125gr. Flat Base bullets. The performance was great but the cost was prohibitive. I switched to the much cheaper 125gr. Speer TNT for economy sake. They worked very well even with a considerable jump to the lands. I've put trying the 150gr. FB bullets on my to-do list. I can't see the need for a boat tail bullet at short(er) range anyway.
