[QUOTE="270 Sender0, post: 494066, member: 9099"] In my experience using VLDs I have found that one needs to keep velocities fairly high in order to gain maximum terminal performance. In one instance using a lower velocity (arround 2,500 fps) 6.5x55 on whitetail deer I found that the 140 gr bullet did not expand as much as I would have hopped and punched a small hole all the way through. The deer was killed but it ran 40 yds. All part of the learning curve.[/QUOTE] Did you try the 130 gr bullet with the 6.5x55 to increase the velocities? I have a 6.5 and I'm interested in trying the VLD [/QUOTE]
