Berger VLD Bullets for Big Game

Sling · 07-29-2006, 10:51 AM

On Berger's new website, they are recomending their VLD bullets for deer and elk sized game.

Has anyone tried the 30 caliber VLD bullets on deer?

personally id be a bit skeptical. that would be like using a sierra matchking on a deer or elk.

There are some knowledgable people who swear by the Match King for game, like Steve Ricciardelli. I've never tried them for hunting, but those .308" 165-grain HPBT Sierras are excellent game bullets. They DO NOT come apart too soon (at .30/'06 velocities, anyway)!
