Description:

Bergers Hybrid design blends the best of both worlds by incorporating two different shapes within the nose. As the bearing surface ends, a tangent ogive begins. This tangent section of the ogive results in the bullet being much less sensitive to seating depth. As you move forward along the tangent portion, the shape changes into a secant ogive (the shape used on the VLD bullets). This shape is very efficient in the wind and is why the VLD became so popular. The key to all this is not just the combining of these two shapes but also the partnership between the ballistician and the bullet maker. Berger’s Chief Ballistician, Bryan Litz uses his expertise to combine the appropriate shapes for optimum performance.

Top takeaways

  1. Berger Bullets' 6.5mm 140gr Hybrid Target bullets feature a design that combines tangent and secant ogive shapes, reducing sensitivity to seating depth and improving wind efficiency.
  2. The bullets have a high ballistic coefficient (G1: 0.607 and G7: 0.311) and sectional density (0.287), indicating superior aerodynamic performance for long-range shooting.
  3. Developed in collaboration with Chief Ballistician Bryan Litz, the Hybrid Target bullets are designed to provide optimum performance through expert blending of ballistic shapes.

Brownells USA An awesomely accurate bullet in 6.5x47 25/06/2017

It may be considered a little heavy for 6.5x47 but this bullet regularly produces sub .1 groups from my McGowen barreled, 30 inch, Savage 12 BR using carefully prepped Lapua brass, H4350 powder, and CCI BR4 primers. Velocity is 2743 with very low ES/SD. Typical groups are under .2. The bullet is not finicky about seating depth either. It's expensive but produces outstanding results.

Brownells USA Extremely accurate 21/12/2014

I run these as the primary accuracy load in my 11 twist 24" Obermeyer 5R barrel in 300 WM. With 71.0 gr of H4831 sc I can hold 0.15 MOA at 100 meters and 2.5-3.0" at 600 yards. I measured bearing lengths within the same lot and found them within +/- 0.002". Weights are consistent too. I have found these more consistent lot-to-lot compared to the 210 VLD. Great bullet.
