Let us suppose that you loaded both the 95gr Berger vld and 115gr Berger vld in a factory 243win hunting rifle,say a Remington,Winchester,Ruger or Browning rifle.Both bullets would be loaded to the same chamber pressure.Which do you suppose would shoot flatter out to 500 yards?How about at 1000 yards?

How sure would you be about your prediction?
Look dude ,compare apples to apples. Using chamber pressure is unfair, so is using obscure bullets intended for specialty firearms. Stick to convential bullets of a given design, with an optimal weight range. But Before I keep playing along why don't you post a thesis on here ,stating all the variables that can and potentially can affect chamber pressure. Then we can bow down at the alter and proclaim you the "Resident Ballistician". Oh by the way we'll be checking your work !
