Range Report Berger 155.5s

[Jon Lester]

Anyone have any hard Data on the berger 155.5s? I am thinking on switching from the lapua 155s due to availibility. If they are equal, I think I can just buy a bunch in the group by.

Re: Berger 155.5s

just shot them out of my 18.5 inch, 2780 FPS and not a hot load, shot 10 rounds into about .35" I need to load some up and run them out to distance, but pretty happy so far.

berger 155.5 bc = .464
lapuas 155 bc = .508

shot both, the lapuas did better for me but not by much.

Lapua updated/changed the bc for the 155 Scenar, G1 = .460 G7 = .230. I have shot both but current load is Lapua.

I shoot these exclusively out of my 308. They are very accurate and don't mind a large jump. Plus, you can buy a bunch and support the USA Young Eagles Team Fundraiser.
