Berger VLD vs Elite Hunter – What are you guys seeing?

[Don@HSM]

I wanted to kick off a discussion that comes up a lot when guys start stretching things out on western hunts—especially as more hunters get comfortable past 400–500 yards. Which Berger bullet do you land on and why?


Both the VLD and the Elite Hunter bullets flat-out work. But there are differences.
Curious where everyone’s landed on this and what factors you are considering most when picking between the two?
- Higher BC?
- Grain weight options?
- Or simply what shoots best through your rifle?



There’s a lot of real-world experience on here—let’s hear it.

Both are incredibly deadly in my experience.

I landed on the 7mm 180 hunter and then the 30 cal 215 Hybrid. Then the 6mm 115 Dtac and finnaly nirvana - 6mm 116 TMK!
