[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 1932179, member: 103947"] Range IS important when your questioning bullet choice. Reviews vary on the Berger bullets. Some die hards say they've had 100% success using them while others shutter thinking about the experience they've had using them. I'm in both camps. I've anchored game instantly with very little meat loss and lethal vital damage. I've also had major meat damage from very frangible bullet jacket separation. Either way, both scenarios anchored my target animal. That's my first and most important goal. Last thing I want is to chase an animal on a mountain side for miles. I think the post reading "use eldx for longer than 500 yards and a well constructed bullet for less" is good advice. I think well constructed bullets are a must regardless of range. Right bullet for the job is necessary. [/QUOTE]
