Thread: Berger vld hunting 155gr 30cal

Really appreciate all the feed back guys, looks like might have to give the Amax and Barnes a trial after what has been said, Finally went to the range last weekend and managed a .685" 5 shot group with the vld,s which I was stoked with but only goin average of 2640fps with 44gr of 2206h, is this still a reasonable speed for hunting with the vld,s or do they need a bit more for the intended max range,Also loaded 150 ballistic tips doing 2750fps using 44.5 gr 2206h and achieved a .750 group, again pretty happy with the accuracy, went to 45gr and the groups started to open up, I'm thinking accuracy over speed is probably the better option at this stage?. I can see how this reloading thing gets addictive real quick!
