Help me understand hunting with Berger bullets!

185 vld in a 300wsm is a nasty combo. Killed a few elk and many deer with it a decade ago.
wish i had taken some photos of the exits from the 6.5 with a 156 EOL, that bullet is absolutely lethal. Gutting my blacktail this year it looked like i was pouring out condensed soup when we opened the diaphragm the other half dozen animals over the last couple years were similar.

I know all to well what the 156 is capable of! Great bullet.

this is the only pic i took of the damage from the first deer i took with one. quartering to, literally knocked the lungs out on the exit, deer took one step as he was falling on his nose. made me a believer

this is what a 185 berger did out of my 300 wsm. caliber sized entry cantelope sized exit. i understand its not quite the same but its a similar weight bullet with similar velocity. Every animal ive shot with my 6.5 prc has been with a berger as well, havent had to track one yet.
Now when you say Berger, you mean Burger hunting bullet or target bullet? That’s my confusion.
Seems like plenty of people love hunting with the 180 hybrid target.
