[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 1193565, member: 14204"] This site is full of VLD end-users, mostly Berger and Matrix but I'm sure the new VLD offerings will soon follow. Like you, I started primarily with NPs, NBTs, and NABs. I'm considerably new in VLDs and A-Max but thus far I have very good success with them in my first time use. 2012 (?) - harvested an MT antelope with 178 grain A-Max at 368 yards with .300 WM 2013 - harvested a MT bull elk at 931 yards with 190 Berger VLD with .300 WM 2014 - harvested a MT muley buck at 311 with 175 Matrix VLD with .270 AI 2015 - harvested a MT muley buck at 425 with 215 Berger with .300 WSM For 2016, I hope to use the 230 Berger or perhaps the Hammer Bullet offerings for my new build, if it gets completed on time that is. I have another month wait for my Lilja barrel. I also have a box of Hornady 220 ELD-X to try. Others (BROZ, Bigngreen, Elkaholic, comes to mind from a long list) have far more experience and very good successes than I do but I feel I am off to a great start IMHO. :D Cheers! [/QUOTE]
