The Berger VLD Hunting Rifle Bullet is one of the flattestshooting hunting Rifle Bullets in the industry. VLD Hunting Rifle Bullets areidentical in design to VLD Target Rifle Bullets except utilize a thinner J4Precision jacket for rapid expansion during game applications. VLD Huntingbullets are designed to penetrate 2-3″ into the vitals and then begin to expandand create a massive wound cavity up to 15″. This delivers maximum organ/tissuedamage and extreme hydrostatic shock aiding in an ethical kill. VLD HuntingRifle Bullets incorporate a secant ogive design which allows the Rifle Bulletto experience less drag as it travels to the target. This reduced drag is whythe VLD shoots flatter, experiences less wind-drift, and has a higher retainedvelocity than all others. A favorite load technique for the VLD’s is touchingthe rifling for single-shot applications, although some rifles may prefer asmuch as .150″ from the rifling. Berger VLD Hunting Rifle Bullets are extremelypopular for long range hunting applications. Built with highly consistent J4Precision Rifle Bullet jackets, most favored by custom Rifle Bullet makers.
