SHARE YOUR 243AI LOAD INFO

I shot my first test loads with the 105 bergers today.
I started with 33g of H Varget. The max load for 243. I shot around .75 for ten shots. After that I worked up .5 grains for each aditional group of ten stopping at 36g for my hottest and most accurate at .336 inches for a five shot group at 100 yards.
I think I have more room to keep getting hotter. I read that you can get 15 percent more powder in the AI so that would put me around 38g for my max loads.
So... I dont want to do somthing stupid.

I loaded some more up increasing the charge .2 grains on up to 37 grains even. 10 loads at 36.2, 36.4 36.6 and so on.
Is this the right ideah?
