[QUOTE="scottyboy, post: 1112809, member: 91491"] Hello everyone, first let me apologize if this topic is in the wrong forum or has been beaten like a dead horse, im new here... please forgive me :) i am looking at shooting some Berger VLD in my 300 Win Mag but was wondering if i could solicit some opinions good-bad-indifferent. i have read on various places that Berger is "particular" in the twist, i shoot a Tikka which i believe is 1:11 twist. i have been looking at the 185 grain and the 215? grain VLD's. i want to assume that either will be fine as my max distance i will shoot is probably 500, maybe 600 on a good day. i will be chasing elk and deer in this particular instance (*i will shoot a few hundred rounds at these distances to be comfortable and did my fair share of long range shooting in my past life in the service) reloading for me is off the table for now, for reasons we dont need to get in to :rolleyes:, and i would be simply buying the HSM ammo through Cabelas or similar perhaps this is a better bullet i should be looking at, but Bergers...to me, have a great reputation. i would appreciate any thoughts on Bergers in this case or any others for that matter. again, thanks for having me on your forums!
