[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 2131, member: 34"] Problems with the custom bullets such as the Berger and JLK are, the jackets are MUCH thinner then the Sierra MK and have been known to blow up on game animals the size of deer and elk. The Sierra does a much better job of holding together and expanding well on game animals. Berger and JLK will tell you the same thing, jackets are to thin on their bullets for hunting. I use Berger, JLK, GTB (Cataruccio) and Sierra for Match shooting at 1000 yards but, limit my hunting to Sierra MK after cutting the named bullets in half. I have been able to make just about ANY rifle I have owned shoot well for LR hunting with selections of Sierra MK bullet weights. Later DC [/QUOTE]
