Optimizing Precision And Accuracy From VLD Bullets By Eric Stecker

[Mike 338]

Eric,

Just a bug in your ear to develop additional .338 offerings. 225ish & 250ish grains for the us Win Mag guys who aren't toting a Lapua's up and down mountains would be awesome.

Also, thanks to Berger for being the type of company that remains open to the input of it's users. It seems that no other company would modify their position as you have regarding best accuracy practices for their product, all based upon what those in the field are telling you.

Hueco3,

Frankly, all I can tell you is that we don't know if a second sweet spot is needed (or if all bullets shoot in the same sweet spot) for either a magnum or standard cartridge. This brings up an interesting question that hasn't been covered yet.

Mike,

Thank you for your kind words. As far as I am concerned, shooters know more about shooting than anyone so their opinions and ideas matter most to me.

Admittedly, I have to consider what is possible and not possible (or much more difficult) but if we can try it to see if it works I'm all for it. As a shooter myself I am as excited about exploring new ground as anyone.

We do get feedback sometimes that we offer too many options and I understand this point. However, I don't see myself changing my stripes on this subject.

Regards,
Eric
