22 Creedmoor, 70 grain Berger VLDs…

[T_Durch]

I picked up some 70 grain VLDs that I am going to load up for my 22 Creedmoor, 22” 1:8 twist. Peterson LRP, Federal 210 and either Varget, StaBall 6.5 or H4350. How far from the lands should I start? Berger’s website suggests anywhere from barely touching to .150 off, .

I like to start at .020" off then go from there if needed. Generally they tend to shoot well.
