From what I understand, the original Berger target bullet was being used by hunters, and they were reporting fantastic results. The bullet had a thinner jacket. The thinner jacketed bullet when shot by target shooters, who generally shoot bullets at higher velocities, would sometimes come apart in flight.
Berger thickened the jacket up to improved their target bullets.
The original Berger target bullet is now their Hunting bullet.
Interesting. Makes sense, but most hunters I know want velocity too. Are the hunting bullets still known to come apart mid flight?
