40 gr Berger
I'm working up several different loads, but I don't have any data on the 40 Bergers.....Looking for a little load advice. I have either Varget or Benchmark to choose from. CCI mag and Fed mag primers. Will shoot either Hornady or Rem brass. Shooting a Howa with 24" BBL. Need a good starting point. I emailed Berger, but haven't heard anything back yet.

Tested some loads the other day and the Berger 40gr. Varmint BT in Winchester (fully prepped and neck turned cases) brass using 25.1grs. of RL-10X with Remington 7 1/2 benchrest primer O.A.L. 2.256" shot into 3/8" 5 shot groups out of my Savage VLP. Give it a try.
