In the realm of precision and performance, Berger's Hunting bullet line stands as a testament to advanced ballistic engineering. Crafted with meticulous attention, these Very Low Drag (VLD) bullets are designed for the discerning marksman who demands excellence beyond 300 yards. The VLD architecture is distinguished by its sharp nose profile, engineered to penetrate deeply before initiating expansion.
This unique design ensures that upon impact, the bullet travels 2 to 3 inches into its target before expanding significantly. What follows is a formidable transformation; between 40% and 85% of the bullet’s weight fragments into shrapnel, dispersing throughout surrounding tissue. This interaction not only enhances penetration but also amplifies hydrostatic shock—a critical factor in creating an expansive wound cavity.
The resultant effect is devastatingly effective within vital areas, producing a wound channel approximately 13 to 15 inches long. Such capability underscores why Berger’s VLD bullets are favored among hunters who require unwavering reliability and terminal performance from their ammunition.
