    If 2209 doesn't work I'll try 2208.

    If it doesn't work I'll try 103gr ELDX. If it doesn't work I'll cry and buy Bergers
    The approach will be to load a batch of 10-20 at book max, then if that gives acceptable accuracy and speed, job is complete. Possibly an adjustment up or down of a couple of tenths to adjust speed.
