Berger 175s and an LTR?

[ccoker]

Anyone running Berger VLD 175s in a LTR?
I have some of the hunting VLDs coming, just curious if anyone has worked up good loads for them in a LTR?

FWIW: I use Lapua brass, CCI BR primers and Varget powder
current load is 44.5g, Sierra 165 GK BTSP, 2.80 COAL

This produces 1" 300 yard groups (farthest I have shot it) but now there is a 1000 yard range close by to work up and practice and my new lease for this year has some potentially long shots (not that I would shoot at game past what I can consistently place accurate shots with, be it 400 or 500 yards)

So, you are shooting 1" groups at 300 and want to screw with the load? You must have gotten the most consistent batch of game kings in history.
