Product Overview
Berger describes the VLD Hunting bullet as a secant ogive boat tail that uses a thinner J4 hunting jacket than the VLD Target. Less drag is the reason Berger gives for a flatter path, less wind drift, and higher retained velocity. Berger says these bullets are meant to penetrate 2-3 inches, then expand and create a wound cavity up to 15 inches.
Applications & Compatibility
For long range hunting in a 30 caliber rifle whose twist is 1:13 inch or faster, using published data for a 0.308 inch, 168 grain VLD.

Important Notes
Berger lists a minimum twist of 1:13" or faster. Berger says VLD Hunting bullets are designed to penetrate 2-3" into the vitals and then expand, creating a wound cavity up to 15". Berger says a favorite seating technique for the VLD is touching the rifling for single-shot use, and that some rifles may prefer as much as .150 inch from the rifling.
