BERGER 7MM 140 GRAIN VLD HUNTING
Berger Hunting Bullets are designed with a series of very efficient ballistic shapes that are intended to deliver specific performance characteristics. These characteristics vary slightly from one bullet design to another, as well as from one caliber to another. The 7mm 140 gr Berger VLD (Very Low Drag) is representative of a typical hunting bullet. It exhibits exceptional accuracy and is suitable for a number of different rifles, one being the venerable 7mm instigated by Peter Berger. Berger has made a name for himself around the world with his unique and innovative VLD bullet. These 7mm 140 gr Berger VLD bullets are especially popular with waterfowl hunters. Berger 7mm 140 gr VLD bullets are designed to provide not only deep penetration instigation that is essential in those larger species, but also explosive expansion and high weight retention upon impact. The hydrostatic shock from these Berger bullets is believed to be the most effective in dropping an animal quickly. Furthermore, these bullets have an extremely smooth jacket surface allowing controlled expansion and the shedding of large amounts of weight. In addition, the 7mm 140 gr VLD (Very Low Drag) hunting bullets have a minimum twist rate of 1:11. These are intended for hand loading and are not intended for automatic pistols.
