Bullets matter wayyyyyyyy more than headstamps. Hint.

It'll only come as a "surprsise" to you,that they are not all "equal". Congratulations?!?

Haven't read the whole thread. What's the view of the Berger 70 grain VLD as a hunting bullet?

I have only used the 70 Speer on Sitka blackmail deer. I used a mid load in a 22-250. They are fully adequate for small deer. One deer I shot at 15 feet and the bullet exploded on the shoulder but still put a good hole through the first lung. The rest of the deer from 50-200 yards all had exits.

Don't shoot them close up in the shoulder at high velocity and they will be fine. Kinda goes for a lot of bullets though don't it?

Another good bullet built like ole Stick here, the Speer .224 45 grain soft point. Usually a tack driver, cheap, kills coyotes and to get it to work all you need is 2700 fps. I keep it for my average coyote calling and around the house varminting. It abilities are on a par with how well Stick runs his mouth! Hint.
