Thinking of getting 500 to try. Who's tried them, and do they like jump? I got a long throat criterion 6.5 creed.
Who’s tried the 144 Berger?

Hybrids are typically very jump tolerant.

Can we try and get this thread going again? I know some guys have some late season cow tags or something. I am hoping somebody has shot these a little bit. I was just getting ready to order some 156 bergers for my PRC. Would really rather go with the 144's if they are killers.

I just received a box of 500 that will be my primary go too bullet for my 6.5 RSAUM
if they are anything like the 140 hybrid then I will switch to these and I don't see them being any different .. they have a smaller pointed meplat but I know lots of guys killing with the pointed scenars and JLK no problems

I tried to resurrect it a couple weeks ago.

Seems this bullet dropped at an inopportune time and will likely have to wait until next season for reliable field reports.

Tried some in my 6.5SS the last two weekends, just fire forming brass....
They are VERY accurate, even with that much case changes during firing.
I even opened up the meplat with a #60 wire bit, and then shot them out at 860 this weekend. I would say, again with fire forming brass, I had a sub 4" group.
Before and after drilling out
Bottom right target @ 100 during fire forming
