[QUOTE="jdinny, post: 316500, member: 875"] iuse the 6.5 140 elite hunter , but have used and buddy uses the VLD. No berger bullets are designed to to penetrate several inches and then shed weight creating massive wound channels. they do not hold together. in fact some wont exit the animal. with that being said. between the wife and i and other various friends and family shooting my guns with bergers, i would say 30 animals have been takedn and 28/30 were dead on impact the other 2 one antelope went maybe 40 yards ( 6mm 105 gr VLD) the other an elk went maybe 60 yards ( 175gr berge elite hunter) ive needed a follow up shot on 1 occasion the rest are 1 and done. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] i can honestly say you wont be disappointed in berger bullets. like i have said before VLDs can be touchy to seating depth but i run bergers in every gun i own except one and thats the supressed short barrel 308 that we dont use for longer shots.
