Typically when I shoot a group with horizontal spred it’s often cause I forgot to readjust my parallax.   Jme

I'll keep that in mind thanks   :tup:

I should have clarified that, I'm getting help from my cousin and misheard him and wrote the wrong number down....3.387 is touching the lands, 3.368 is what the book said for the oal....thanks for asking that I'll correct it on there. That's where my problem was, I was seating the bullet to far back and quickly fixed it.....I'm .07 off the lands with the last grouping after correcting my mistake

I've always had my best luck with Bergers when they are 0-10 thou from touching, in fact, I'd say nearly all of my guns that shoot Bergers are typically real close to 5 thou off.

Berger bullets, generally speaking, are rather seating depth sensitive and usually like being pretty close to touching before they shoot their best which is why Berger's often don't shoot real well in factory guns with lots of freebore and limited magazine length.
