I've got a 10 shot group with 168gr VLDs that went .662 MOA. I've killed a bunch of stuff with 155gr VLDs and they just electrocute stuff. The 155gr Scenars are working very well. Seem to group a little better than the same weight VLDs for me. I've only shot one pig with them but they seem like they are a little harder and penetrate better than the VLDs, but maybe not as dramatic kills. The sow, a little under 200 pounds made it about 100 yards or so after the hit. I've never had them go more than a few feet after hit with a VLD. 175gr SMKs shoot great, and I have killed a few critters with them, but was not terribly impressed with how quickly they kill in comparison to other bullets I have used.

The 215 Burgers seem like a tough bullet. Although they shot well in junior's rifle, he hasn't killed anything with them. Haven't seen many firsthand reports either, except that the tips bent at ~1900 fps in water. Sub-loads will have lower rotation than HV loads too. J Last edited by 4th_point; 08/03/14.

VLDs can be made to shoot as well but takes a little more work. So, on steel, I kinda prefer the Scenars. On critters, I have not found ANYTHING that makes an animal take fewer steps than the VLDs.. Even with poorly placed shots. Not advocating that, but on pigs, I put a bullet in whatever part is exposed� I've only shot two critters with the 155gr Scenars, pictured below. The pig went 100 yards or so after a good hit through the heart/lungs. Bullet exited. She was probably just under 200 pounds. Coyote was DRT at 165 yards. Right now, I'd say I prefer the VLDs on critters, but I'm gonna continue to use the Scenars to get a better feel for their performance. If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

Travis You're likely to get the Berger Hybrids or LRAB to shoot better than the VLD: SAAMI chamber, mag length, etc. The Hybrids have a more stout jacket, as others have mentioned, and I haven't heard much about how they do when the velocity gets way down low. I'd start with LRAB over Hybrids because they do open easily, and they haven't been sensitive to seating depth. Same with 208 Amax. I belong on eroding granite, among the pines.

Will give them a run in the 308 win. Have you a favorite load? Not really, it depends on the rifle, and brass. I find a load that groups well around a target velocity window of 2650-2750fps in a 20" bbl. Varget, 4064, and 4895 are comparable in the 308 case in that bullet weight. Fed 210M primer. Around 43-45gr Varget is in the ballpark in Win brass...it has the most space internally, and the actual charge weight varies with different brass. It ain't all burritos and strippers my friends...

The "fast" load is clocking about 2,000fps. But that is according to the drop tables. My Chrony took a tumble and is not currently trustworthy... I'm gonna guess 1,000fps on the TrailBoss loads. I'm leaving in a minute to shoot them at 250. That should give me a better idea. UBER quiet. Cats are gonna hate this fuggin' setup. Travis Last edited by deflave; 08/17/14.
