The berger shot like lasers but I had a whitetail buck go 110 yards no blood no hair shot with 140g vldh 50 yard shoot a high shoulder shot probably would have dropped it.
I switch to the hammer bullets have only killed one whitetail doe at about 100 yards it ran about 60 yards with the behind shoulder shot but I didn't have any problem following the blood trail if I had been close to a boundary line I would have known that it crossed it
I agree if you make a high shoulder shot. I have hunted with a bow since I was 16 years old in my 60s now. Can't make myself aim at the shoulder always pull back just behind the leg old habits are hard to break
There's no doubt that the Burgers will put game down usually with in seconds the only dilemma if you are hunting in thick cover and need a blood trail or are close to a boundary line you don't want the animal to cross
I shot a whitetail buck a couple of years ago at about 50 yards with a 6.5 creedmoor 140 berger vld hunter broadside right behind the front leg hit just above the heart it ran without any signs of being hit waited 20 minutes started looking at where I shot no blood no hair looking in direction...
Was wondering what you guys think about the Nosler rifles and how accurate they are.I am wanting a new rifle something more than the mid priced guns I have now. It will be for mainly deer but I'm wanting to go elk hunting some day thanks
Thanks for the reply. I killed a whitetail buck in 2018 that field dressed 170 pounds at 50 yards with a 140 grain Berger vld hunter 6.5 creedmore impact velocity around 2600 fps when shot the deer showed no sign of being hit there was no blood or hair to be found I thought I missed started...
