Berger 28501 VLD Hunting .284 168 Grain Bullets

In the realm of precision and lethality, Berger Bullets stand unparalleled. Engineered to Match Grade standards with a steadfast commitment to quality, these bullets exemplify excellence in every aspect of their manufacturing process. Utilizing the finest materials and exacting tolerances, Berger ensures each projectile performs at its peak.

The Berger Hunting bullet line is revered among hunters for its formidable impact on big game. Available in VLD (Very Low Drag) or Hybrid designs, these bullets are crafted with a sharp nose profile and slightly thinner jacket—a combination that allows them to penetrate deeply before expansion begins. This design facilitates an initial penetration of 2 to 3 inches prior to expanding.

Upon expansion, the bullet sheds between 40% and 85% of its weight as shrapnel within the target's vital organs. The resulting hydrostatic shock creates an extensive wound cavity measuring approximately 13 to 15 inches in length. Such trauma often results in rapid incapacitation due to immediate shock or subsequent blood pressure loss and organ failure—ensuring a swift, ethical kill.

Unlike traditional high-retention projectiles that merely pass through targets like arrows, Berger Bullets deliver energy where it matters most: inside your quarry. By choosing the Berger VLD for your next hunt, you assure yourself not only accurate shot placement but also significant stopping power—minimizing tracking efforts post-shot so you can savor your hunting success without delay.
