    @Shearer - Thanks for the offer but I ended up getting some Norma brass a while ago (I bought 50 new and also tried out two boxes of factory norma as well).

    I ended up settling on a 210gr Berger Hunting VLD with 78.0gr of AR2217 and a CCI250, haven't got COL with me but its about 0.010" off the lands in my rifle. Gives ~2830fps but is a little warm. Great for single shots and even three round groups but I took it to F-open one hot sunny day and tried a 10 shot string and I was getting sticky bolt lift and flattened primers.

    I did try some Retumbo (AR2225 by another name) but didn't get the same level of accuracy as the AR2217 load, speed was comparable and pressure was probably lower.

    I would highly recommend if your looking for Factory ammo that people try the Norma ammo with a 150gr Nosler BT, insanely accurate in my rifle.
