[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 911164, member: 12995"] Thankss yall! Well...The Bergers did it again this evening. Laid the smackdown on a big doe at about 125 yards. She was at a perfect 90* angle. I took a low shoulder shot for the pumphouse and it went in and out with no blood. She was dead in her tracks and never even attempted to make a step. It impacted her so hard It slammed her violently on her side, and she kicked for about 2 seconds and it was done. The bullet's impact was so hard it looked like she was hit by a Mack truck. I've only had this happen once before and it was also a doe and a 7mm RM shooting Barnes 160 Triple-Shock. Anyway, I have been so impressed with these 7mm Berger 168 VLD's and my newly built hunting rifle, I am going to use them both exclusively for my hunting setup. Their slogan still rings true in my book, "Shoot better...Shoot Berger." :D Not a bad weekend...2 deer in 2 days with a fresh rifle and an unperfected load. It was cold, but worth it. This is my first year in this club, and the first time I have been hunting this whole season was yesterday and today (I'm 2 for 2 so far. :D )...So my shooting seems to have earned me a new nickname by the other club members..."The Deer Slayer".
