Berger 140gr Elite Hunter

Kmccord · Oct 24, 2024

Well, I changed my reloading steps, removed the FL sizer die decapper, started using my Mandrel set, set the neck tension, removed majority of my runout, and started seeing improvements. Looks like a node on 57.5gr area, need to run it again and go below and above a little to see if it improves and run another one at 59.0, I had two nearly in one hole, then a darn flyer.

No pressure signs at 59.0, not sure when others start seeing pressure with H1000.

I only shot two at 58.5, they flew about 1.5 inches apart, the second shot is on the edge of the last target.

Anyone have problems with Berger 140gr Elite Hunter bullets? This is the second rifle I have had hell getting them to group consistently or group worth a flip. They were so so in my 6.5 Creed with H4350, RL-16, RL26 and Staball. Now, having issues with 6.5 PRC with H1000, sporadic on group's, was thinking of trying H4831SC to see if any better, but past experiences tell me I will not have any better results. Just curious if I have drawn the bad luck with these or if others have problems as well. I am thinking of switching to 147 ELD-M for the PRC and see if I have better results.

Try n565.. 1 hole

I do not have any N565, may purchase some to have a look.
