[QUOTE="lennyo3034, post: 1486317, member: 98086"] I am switching to Berger 140 hunting VLDs this year since that's what my new rifle likes most. I have heard this bullet tends to fragment as opposed to expand. If that's the case, should I look for a heart/lung shot as opposed to a shoulder shot? My property is not particularly large so I try to drop them DRT. Shoulder shots have been effective at this but I'm not sure how well a fragmenting bullet will worj for that shot. Any with experience with VLDs through the shoulder? White tail is target species. Muzzle velocity with 6.5 140 VLD is 2750. [/QUOTE]
