Ok here is the way I think the math should go on my Raspberry Blonde.
take the OG...say 1.058
then take a sg after it's stopped dropping...say 1.010
then add Berries and take another sg ...say 1.018
then a fg after secondary ....say 1.012
then the math would be 58-10= 48 points plus 18-12 for a total of 54 points the use my handy BS ABV calc using an OG of 1.058 and a FG of 1.004 to get an ABV of 7.1%
so how close will I be?
 
You should be pretty close, but you may actually get some additional fermentables from the meat of the fruit that hasn't come out when you take the SG at 1.018.
