[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1203020, member: 11960"] I've played with the Matrix 160gr 6.5mm and the 168gr 7mm bullets and they've both served me well. The 160gr 6.5mm is hard to compare to anything else because there isn't much else out there in that class of 6.5mm. The quality and consistency are certainly there and they hold up very well to the velocities I've shot them to (3400 + fps). I've compared the 168 7mm Matrix to the 168 Berger VLD Hunter in my 284 Striker and I can't really tell the difference between them. When I shoot them both at the same velocity they shoot nearly identically out to 1300 yards. Based on the very limited testing I've done with them I'd expect the Matrix to be a more predictable hunting bullet than the Berger. The Bergers seem to "grenade" and the Matrix expands in my experience when shooting at wet leather scraps. [/QUOTE]
