From my limited testing today (first time out with the new upper) it looks like 35 gr bergers are going to shoot well. Didn't try the 40 gr bergers yet as conditions aren't good and I only have a few of them to try. Waiting for a better day, but I'm sure they will shoot well. I like the fewer exits with the 35's, but I like the bc of the 40's better. Running the numbers, 40's at 3700 fps totally kill the 35's at 3800 fps. By 100 yds it's all over, out at 300 you get 1" less drop and 4" less drift in a 10 mph wind.
I haven't chronographed anything yet, just pure speculation on that. Might squeeze 3900 out of the 35's, but it doesn't help much.
