[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 868135, member: 2693"] I'm reading more and more threads on people needing bullets, especially Bergers. When I bought some I'm glad I bought several boxes of each at the time! So, is it time to start considering different bullets based on availability? I was told that Hornady actually sells more bullets world wide than anyone. Don't know if that is 100% accurate or not and don't care but is anyone having a tough time finding the AMax bullets they use? What's the hunting feedback on the Hornady HPBT match bullets? Anyone? What about JLK bullets? I spoke with a rifle builder in WY who says he has as good or better luck with those v. Bergers so I bought several hundred of the 6.5mm 140 VLD JLKs and 7mm 180 VLDs. Haven't tried them yet because I have plenty of Bergers. What about Nosler custom competition bullets? Speer competition bullets? Do the Bergers out-shoot the Sierra matchkings and perform equally as well on game or not as well? The apparent shortage has me thinking. I have some 210 Berger VLDs I doubt I will ever shoot. I have 7mm Berger VLDs in 180 and I don't know that I'll ever shoot those either because the 168s are shooting for me about as good as I can ever hope. Should I keep them? Sell them? [/QUOTE]
