Ok...... we bought into the berger hype and decided to give them a try. I'd had some in hand for years I just didn't like them because my previous 6.5 creed didn't like them. Fast forward to this year, my semi-custom savage loves them as well as My Dads tc icon precision hunter 6.5 creed. Muzzle velocity ouut of his 22 in is around 3000 fps. He shot a decent NH 10 point this morning at 40 yards that came on a dead run to a bleat can. Bullet hit a rib on the way in, causing a golf ball sized hole on the entry side of the rib cage. Destroyed the heart and lungs and I found the bullet in the hide on the off side. Total weight with some meat chunks that I couldn't get out was 32.5 grains. Pretty happy with its performance. Buck was down in 30yards.
