40gr. Berger hpbt over 29gr. of BLC-(2) in .204
I saw a load listed for 29-30 gr. BLC-2 with 40gr.V-Max in the favorite loads section of this forum. should this also, be safe with the Berger 40gr. hpbt? I've loaded about 10 rounds with an OAL of 2.265" but wanted to check with someone more knowledgeable than I, before firing any of the rounds. Thanks!

I just haven't been able to get the 40 v-max to group with BLC(2) in my rifle. Maybe someone else has had better results with Ball 2 and 40g bullets in other rifles. I'd be very careful working up with a bullet change to 40 Bergers. Even with the 40 v-max I encountered pressure signs at about 29.5 g and couldn't go any higher. Ball 2 does shoot 32 v-max very well in my rifle.
