Berger Elite hunter

[Hondo64d]

I shot a Caribou a few years back with a 140gr EH from my 6.5 Creedmoor. ‘Bou was at a fast trot about 200 yards out and I managed to put one through the lungs. He managed maybe 30 more yards before he was done. This bullet provided more destruction than any bullet I have ever used, with severe bloodshot on both the entrance and exit sides. It was almost too much. They shoot really well, and killed really well but I haven’t shot a critter with them since.

Another buck that fell to the 140 EH out of my 6.5x284. First shot was at a 325 thru the lungs and likely would have been the only one needed. He was on a little death run headed to the bottom of a deep steep canyon. He had two more put in him so we didn't have to hike to the bottom and back out.

175 elite hunter out of a 7 saum works great for whitetail and hogs. Haven't used on anything bigger but would be my choice if I had the opportunity.

I shoot 300 grain elite hunters out of my 338 rum and they have always done the job as least as well as expected in ranges from 200-1024 yards on more animals than I can remember.

Bergers just flat out perform. We’ve used even the target and OTM tactical too. They all do great

The 7mm 195gr is ridiculously accurate out of my 7 rem mag

As opposed to some on here, we have shot multiple deer, elk and mountain goat on the shoulder with 6.5 berger 140 vld. All worked very well. I have no fear of shoulders shooting them. Just penetrate 3" and go unhinged typically. At longer ranges, they will expand and actually hold together a bit when impact gets under 2,000 fps.

This is a 6.5 PRC with the 140 Elite Hunter. 200 yard shot on Antelope. I’ll never use this bullet again. Quickly went to the 147 ELDM and used for hunting this past deer season. They did really well. Currently working on developing a 150 ABLR combo. Personally, I would stay away from Berger for hunting purposes.

You can't shoot heavy bones with Berger. Or you get burger. You catch a shoulder with a Berger and the quarter is usually a bloodshot mess. I don't shoot them at all at smaller deer because they wreck shit. Animals are dead but yeah a guy really needs to stick em in the ribs. I stick to ballistic tips for antelope. The eld-m worked good? I shoot the 168 out of my 308 and its awesome on deer. But its going slow so no splash boom effect at 2675 fps.
