Help with bullet choice

I shot some more of those 69g Sierra's this weekend. Shot at 200 yards. Went up in powder to 30.6, blew primers there. Nothing shot as good as 28.8 g of the ARcomp. So I started seating depth tests and found shorter was better. Shot a .3 atv200 COAL of. 2.25
 
I got some data today. Figured I put it here.
These are loads that produces best in my bbl.
69g Sierra, 28.5g ARcomp 3350
75g Hornady bthp 30g RL15.5. 3150
ARcomp produced a 10 fps swing over 13 shots.
I thought that was pretty good. It cut .15s and .25s holes
Anyway very happy with both loads.
This is a Urbanrifleman bbl
 
Hadn't posted back on this thread since January.
I ended up with the 80g sierra mk, best .
Pushing it with 30g imr4350 took that load to a match. Did fare. 100 yard score 10 round target. 100 with 3x es. At the time my better scope was being worked on. I used my 16x swfa. I could definitely see where using more x will be useful. I was actually surprised it shot that well.
The harder hitting load with the 80smk I found with 31.4 of h4350. It shoots lil better at 300.
Than Imr at 300. But the Imr at 100 consistently shot in the .150s at home.
This barrel is just now broken in good. Guessing I'll end up putting it on one of my other 700 actions.
I took it off, now I put a 6bra on target action.
.22 cal has hard time competing with the likes of 6mm, and.30 cal.
It was 2:30 in the morning and I went to shop to cuz Couldn't sleep.
 
I'm having will good results with the berger 77 and 73 both like the H 4350 with 205m pr speeds are good and group are small, hope this helps
