[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 661192, member: 2693"] Rich, as I understand it, it was John Burns and his hunting buddies that first started loading Berger "target" bullets and hunted with them to find out they worked really well. Then Berger bullet company decided to make "hunting VLDs" and in doing so those bullets have a thinner jacket. Is this correct? Greg, thanks for the reply. What I keep reading about is the 300 gr hybrid in the 338. That is a really big bullet and I wouldn't even post a concern on that one for game even though it is still possible that it would not perform as one would expect- I think someone posted something like that on this thread. I was hoping someone had some experience with the 140 6.5mm hybrid at this point. I think I'll take out the new 7RemMag first and play with the 180s to see what happens. [/QUOTE]
