Berger or Nosler for best groups from 100-200 yd

[p5200]

I've tried some Sierra BK. 39 grain with 25 grn. of Benchmark which according to the data I found I'm almost at the max. I would like to try something a little lighter in one of these brands of bullets next. The gun is a Rem. 700 VTR .204 the powders I have right now are Varget and Benchmark I plan to get some RL-10 later on. I am just looking for accuracy mostly not worried about any super fast loads for just punching paper. I realize each gun has it's own individual requirements I just thought maybe one of the mentioned bullets might just be more accurate in general. This is the last thing to add to my cart then, I can place my order. Thanks for all advice!

I havent shot any 20 cal, but in general, with the 22, 6mm and 30 cals I have shot, the Berger always beats the Nosler, but who knows with the 20 cal. BUt, I know what I would buy

Berger 35gr would be MY first choice followed by nosler. Benchmark is an excellent powder as well. The hornadys are good bullets but from what i have noticed the nosler and berger are a little bit tougher bullet if you wanted to use them in a hunting application as well. For just punching paper then any of them would work great.
