Love the gun mate, what powder charge do you use with the 35gn Bergers?

The 35 gr. Bergers like 19.5 gr. Re7, but I get my best accuracy with 32 gr. Hornady V-max using the same load. It's a compressed load but works with the chamber in my rifle.

Thanks for that John, Im try to source some 35 bergers here with no luck. Ive tried the 32gn bergers with AR2207 (H4198) with some luck but cant replicate the 5 shot .179 with 17.1gn of powder i got. The gun is a tikka with 11 twist kreiger. I won't have the BR gun till after christmas I might try and find some of the 32 Hornady V-max and work up a load. Cheers mate.
DAMN!!!..very nice rifle sir.
This is my .20 Vartarg, I couldn't be happier with it.

This is a 5 shot group at 100 yds.

My 12 twist benchmark barreled Tikka with a 23" #5 contour barrel shoots almost the same load into 3/8" at 204 yards for 5 shots with 18.4 gr H 4198, 35 gr Berger and a federal 205m primer. Hoping I could learn about a new load. Lol
