Berger hybrid fps sweet spots

I know a good deal of the 6mm vlds have a sweet spot when it comes to fps and from what I understand rpm, this is usually obtained at lower speeds and not running them over 3,000fps.

Has anyone found a good sweet zone for the Berger 105 hybrids?
 
I think it is more about barrel time than exact velocity so can vary with powder burning rate. My best results are ~2920 in 6BR from an 8" twist 30" with H4895 and ~3270 in 6mm Remington from 8" twist 32" with H4831 SC.
 
Some early load development for me in a 6 brx is showing some good results at about 2950. Heading to the range today to try some different seating depths.
