Product Description
The Berger EOL Elite Hunter Projectiles, specifically the 6.5mm 156gr variant, are expertly crafted for hunters requiring a heavy projectile for their 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, 26 Nosler, and other 6.5 calibre long-range hunting setups. These 156gr Berger EOL Elite Hunter projectiles are recognised as "heaviest-in-class" and are engineered to surpass the typical performance of heavy hunting projectiles. Their sleek profile boasts an ultra-high ballistic coefficient (B.C.) and increased sectional density, ensuring outstanding energy retention upon impact, crucial for hunting game such as red deer in New Zealand.
Berger's Elite Hunter Projectiles feature an industry-leading hybrid ogive design. This design expertly blends tangent and secant shapes to optimise efficiency, reduce wind drift, and minimise sensitivity to seating depth. Elite Hunters are designed for ease of loading and shooting, delivering the unmatched accuracy and consistent performance that long-range shooting enthusiasts expect from Berger Projectiles.
- Hybrid Ogive: Hybrid Ogives blend the best aspects of tangent and secant nose shapes into one ogive. Near the bearing surface, the shape starts off as a tangent, which makes it easy to tune, then transitions to a secant ogive, which results in a flatter trajectory and less wind drift.
- Consistent Core: Berger's exacting core manufacturing process ensures you do not have to worry about sorting by weight. This provides more reliable drop, consistent ballistic coefficient, and improved accuracy.
- Boat Tail: Boat Tail projectiles offer an aerodynamic advantage at longer ranges over their flat base counterparts, especially when transitioning from transonic to subsonic velocities.
- J4 Hunting Jacket: J4 Precision Bullet Jackets are a premier choice for custom bullet manufacturers. They are among the most consistent and concentric copper jackets globally, maintaining an unprecedented +/- .0003" tolerance. J4 hunting jackets are produced slightly thinner to allow for 2-3" of penetration before rapidly expanding, creating significant hydrostatic shock and a substantial wound cavity.
