[QUOTE="eshorebwhntr, post: 943059, member: 17112"] My experience thus far matches yours, albeit with 7mm 180 Target Hybrid out of the STW cartridge. I fully agree with the assessment of the jacket thickness and needing to hit bone to start expansion. I believe that Berger will step up to the plate once things slow down and you will see the Elite Hunter line in all the popular caliber/weight combo's. From my understanding the Elite Hunter is basically a Target Hybrid with a hunting bullet jacket thickness. Also I wouldnt be surprised at all if in 10 years the VLD bullet is a thing of the past. Hybrids are less sensitive and have better BC's than their same weight class counterparts. [/QUOTE]
