Anyone jumpin' 180 Berger's in 7wsm?

[Roccafella]

I've been having a helluva time getting under 1 MOA with my current load so a buddy suggested I try jumping the 180's a bit and maybe upping the charge weight some.

-Berger 180's .010 in the lands
-62gr. 4831sc
-Win brass
-CCI LR Mag primers
-O.A.L. 2.94 to tip (3.225 to ogive w/ comparator)

Now I know some might want to question my prone technique but could we please keep this about actual reloading.

Holy shit man!
That is the definition of a concise, no BS answer. I know that I am behind the curve a bit on the latest and greatest but why I never bothered to check out a Berger affiliated website is I guess retarded. I'm going to test this next week. Thank you!

I jump mine over .100 and I run pretty much the same combo but with about 3.5 more grain of powder.
