Just got some in this week and anxious to try them out. One rig I have seems to be very sensitive on seating depth for the normal vld design so hoping this one corrects that. Be curious if anyone else has run these and what results were.

That sounds really good. Couple of hunts to get out of the way and then hope to try them out.

A friend shot a cow elk with the new Berger hunting hybrid 168 with his 7 Rem mag. Shot was just over 100 yd into lung heart area. He said it dropped to the shot. He remarked the exit hole was not very large but internals were shot to pieces. He was happy with the results.
