Is anyone using the berger 85.5 Hybrid
As the subject reads is anyone out there using the berger 224 cal 85.5 hybrids and if so what twist rate barrel are you using. Looking at re barreling my existing o mark to 223 for short range and club shoots

I am guessing that either they aren't available as yet in country or no one is using them.

I tried them once in my 8T 22-250AI. But havent done any load dev with them yet. They go about 70fps slower then 80gr VLD with same powder charge.

1:6.5 twist Krieger at 30inch; 24.3-24.6gr '08. Reasonable results from 300-700yd, but moved up to 88-90gr projectiles.

I figure these would be brilliant in something like 22 Creedmeor, 223AI or 22-250.
