    Got some time to do more testing on the VLDs this morning, think I have cracked it

    Berger should consider renaming these bullets to VUS (Very Unusual Seating), haha. Found an article on the net saying you should try 0.010, 0.040, 0.080 and 0.120 off the lands.

    This is the result:

    So it looks like the secret formula for my 788 is 80 thou off the lands. Getting some nice low SD numbers as well, so pretty happy with this.
