Berger doesn't recommned their hunting VLD to be shot faster than 3,100 fps.

140 gr. VLD at 3K fps out of my 6.5-284 is deadly on chest shot Louisiana WT's.

I gave up on VLD's for my 26 Nosler after talking with a Berger tech. He suggested that I use their target VLD with its heavier jacket.

I subsequently chose mono's for that round and am happy with the results.
