Here are some 115 VLD loads that work well for me. Both loads are at 3.310 OAL. Not bad for a Marlin XL7!gun) 54.5 gr. H4831sc @ 2976 fps. 50.5 gr. H4350 @ 3060 fps.

Everything I have read regarding the 115gr Berger VLD's shows 54.3 to 54.5 gr. of H4831sc a MAX load. Has anyone out there loaded more with good results? I shot a SUB MOA with 54.5gr and BR2 primers today, with my Marlin XL7. Very happy with the grouping, but was hoping for more muzzle...
