Berger 26504 VLD Hunting 6.5 Creedmoor 140gr Bullets 100/Box

The Berger 26504 VLD Hunting bullets deliver exceptional long-range accuracy for 6.5 Creedmoor shooters pursuing precision at extended distances. These 140-grain projectiles combine match-grade construction with hunting-optimized terminal performance. The Very Low Drag (VLD) design maintains velocity and energy downrange while providing consistent expansion on game.

What Makes This Different

The VLD profile features a secant ogive and boat-tail design that reduces drag coefficient compared to standard hunting bullets. This advanced geometry maintains supersonic flight longer than conventional projectiles, extending effective range by 200-300 yards. The J4 precision jacket ensures uniform wall thickness within 0.0003 inches, delivering sub-MOA accuracy potential that rivals match bullets while retaining reliable expansion characteristics.

Key Features

• 140-grain weight optimized for 6.5 Creedmoor ballistics and barrel twist rates
• VLD boat-tail design with 0.264-inch diameter and secant ogive profile
• J4 precision jacket with uniform wall thickness for consistent performance
• Ballistic coefficient of 0.612 (G1) for superior downrange energy retention
• Lead core construction provides controlled expansion at hunting velocities
• Match-grade manufacturing tolerances ensure shot-to-shot consistency
• 100-count bulk packaging for serious precision shooters and hunters

Field testing demonstrates these bullets maintain accuracy beyond 800 yards in hunting rifles with 1:8 twist barrels. The design performs effectively on medium game from whitetail to elk, with reliable expansion at impact velocities between 1,800-3,000 fps. Weather-resistant construction maintains performance in temperature extremes from -20°F to 140°F without degradation.
