My rifle likes the 40 gr. Berger, 25.1 gr. RE-10X, CCI BR-4 Primer and WW, Rem or HDY case. You may have to play with different loads to find out what yours likes the best. That is the most fun part.

I can't complain about the 39 grain BK's from serria this is a 10 shot group, why ten shot well I jsut kept shooting to see what it would do it just kept going and going like well you know

I agree with Howler, my savage VLP also likes the 39gr BK'S give them a try.

Out of the three Savage barrels I've used each preferred the 35 Berger.
