I have been using the Berger VLD for quite some time.
Deadliest bullet I have ever used but in fairness I have pretty much stopped shooting any other bullet for big game except for a dozen or so plastic tipped AMAXs and TMKs.
I shoot for elk shoulder blades and don't lose much meat but do get great bullet performance.
I am probably just into 3 digits of elk killed in my presence with the VLDs so there's that.
In particular the 105gr VLD kills elk really well if you get a little scapula on the way in.
If you feel the need for exits so you can track poorly hit game the Berger VLD might not be the best choice, but if you shoot well expect great results.
Good Luck.
