Berger 105 hybrid terminal performance

[clark33]

I plan on using my 6 creedmoor for mule deer hunting this fall. I have used it before with 108 ELDMs with good success. Tried some 105 hybrids recently and really like what I'm seeing on paper and steel.

Has anyone used these on deer sized game? I know the 215 hybrids work, kind of hoping it's the same for these.

Thanks

Search for "scenarshooter" over on 24HourCampfire. He and some others killed a few truckloads of animals including several elk with the 105 hybrid out of the 6 creedmoor.

Pronghorn last year w. my 6CM pushing 105 Hyb. 450ish yards. Dropped at the shot, not even a twitch.
Entrance, broke front leg.

Bullet was just under offside skin, blew all the hair off, and almost existed, actually just started to tear skin.

This is entrance side, just behind the leg.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that documents terminal performance on animals. Never shot the 105s though.

Their deadly. I've killed alot of deer and groundhogs with them.

Dang I thought this would be a much longer thread by now...

I have a buddy who runs the 105 Hyb in his 6XC, and at a jr. Deer camp, they slayed 4 mule deer bucks with them. From 150 to 400+. All one and done.

Any difference in performance from the hybrid to the VLD Hunting? Scrapping the 103 ELDX and going to try the 105 hunting in my 6 Dasher.

I use the 105 vld hunting in 6br with very good results . Dropped several deer in there tracks with them out to 600 yards.

I use them in my 6mmAI's, and I have taken deer and similar sized game out to 800. Results at 6-700 are similar to what you are seeing above.

What kind of velocity are y'all running the vld hunting? I'm 29 rounds into a new barrel that I've done the Berger seat depth test with 40gr of rl16 @ 2989. Ready to start playing with powder/charge weights. Lapua srp.
