Berger 185 VLD + Varget for TRG-22 ???

[vicv]

Hi,

Looking for any load data for the Berger 185 VLD + Varget or Reloader for the SAKO TRG-22.

Thanks a lot.

Vic,

Not sure why you need load data specific to a TRG-22, as load data is just "load data".

However, when I was working with Berger's 185 gr LRBT in a Rem 700 5R, I just used Hodgdon's 190 gr BTSP data as a starting point, and I just worked up to 45 grains of Varget as Max load.

One note about Berger's 185 grain bullets. The 185 gr. LRBT actually has a better G1 and G7 BC, than the 185 gr VLD, and is a shorter OAL bullet, with a shorter bearing surface, meaning more powder can be used.

For my purposes the 185 Gr LRBT was superior to the 185 VLD, which is not always the case with Bergers.

Hi Bob,

You are right. Load data is just "load data".
I mentioned TRG-22 just to specify the twist rate, 1:11".

I will try the Berger 185gr LRBT.

Thank you very much.
