Have you tried any of the heavier VLD type bullets in it? [/quote]
nope. Don't see any need to if you don't shoot in the next zip-code, and I don't like target bullets for hunting. Regardless of what Berger says, they don't make a hunting bullet. Try using those berger "hunting" bullets when the game isn't posing there for you broadside. The Hornady interlock, SST or Nosler BT will do anything I need to do.

While I prefer Accubonds, Partitions, TTSX, and SST's to the Berger's, you are making a statement that is faulty at best.
I've seen first hand what a 7mm sized VLD will do to a quartering mule deer at 225 yards and it was impressive.
