We have just finished a small run of 30 cal 115 gr FB bullets and are looking for some good rifles to give them a test. If you are interested send an email to Michelle Gallagher at michelle.gallagher@bergerbullets.com. Please include the following:

-Address, phone and email
-Rifle details
-Date by which you could complete your test

This bullet is the same shape as our 110 gr and 125 gr. It is made on the same jacket as the 110 gr. We were asked to make a bullet a bit heavier than the 110 gr which has been successful in many rifles. This test will tell us whether or not we will add the 115 gr FB to our line.

Regards,
Eric

good going eric' I am making bullets the same weight.
I'm sure they will be a success, they go well in a 16 twist. Two shooters are using that weight in our scrub league at camillus. So far they are working very well. It will be nice to have them available to the other shooters. good luck on theese'

As I read this, if they're the "same shape" & on the same jacket, they're like a 110 but with a 5 grains more lead up in the nose, right? In passing, if this is so, an 18-twist should shoot them just fine.
 
Charles,

You are correct. In fact these should work in a 19" twist but I would be surprised if there are many of those out there.

As I said before, I am ready to test for you. I have twist rates of 18", 18.7", and 20" chambered and ready at this time.

Eric, I am using a 19.25 twist......

in my 30 GR which is based on the Grendel case. Using your 110 or Robinette's 112 gr. bullets it shoots great. So far this year; 24x, 21x and 19x. It would be great to try something a little heavier as I still have some case capacity left. I like that your bullets have the 8 ogive and smaller metplat. Now going a little heavier should help just a little more, especially at 200 yds. My one student, who has never shot benchrest before, was able to shoot 250-14x with your 110s that you gratuitously provided for the benchrest school, with one of my older barrels yet.:D Thank you Berger Bullets for the donation. It was much used and appreciated.:)

Sincerely,
Larry Feusse
