[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 754555, member: 13632"] That's extremely odd IMO, I've shot a lot of animals with the 140 Berger and 140 Accubond and the performance of the Berger was the reason I started loading Bergers other cals, there was no comparing them!! They normally open right at or just inside the rib cage then you can see that they open aggressively after that blowing a hole out the other side that is fist size if they exit. And the 130 should have opened easy since you should have been running them right at the limit of the jacket, even the 140's in a WSM you can run them right at the edge for the jacket. I would dang sure shoot a detailed e-mail to Eric Stecker at Berger with the lot # and all the details. I would take a close look at the 165 Matrix VLD, it's about as good as it gets in the 270 WSM, during my testing I shot light whitetails like yearlings to see how they did and they were impressive while still reaming any elk that got in the way gun) [/QUOTE]
