I was excited to get out and try VV N135 with the 40 grain Bergers. I had about 50 match preped rounds ready to go for Saturday morning. 3600 fps - 3900 fps. Not one load even showed a hint of accuracy at 100 yards.Just because the holes are close to a target does NOT mean that's was the aim point for that shot.They were going 4 inches left,right,up,and down

I could have shot better groups with a shotgun loaded with rocks.

.My first thought was one of you guys broke in, bent my barrel, and dented my crown because of the Postal shoot

.Not the case. I also had 25 rounds of my favorite 26.6 grain Benchmark loads with me. They shot a nice little group in the center of the bottom left target.

. Not sure why,But I never had ANY luck with the 40 grain Bergers in my Savage's. I'm glad that wasn't the first load I shot when the gun was new.

.Well, I guess I try N135 with with 35gr Berger's and 39gr Sierra's next. One thing I learned is when it doesn't shoot, DON'T blame the GUN!!!!!!! Be persistent and try a different load!!
