How fast does a Berger VLD have to be going at impact to have the bang-flop explosive effect? I'm thinking of using the 155 grain .308 in a .30-30 AI pistol, but the published load data don't go below .300 Savage.
........The impact speeds to achieve the "bang flop" explosive affect that you are looking for will probably depend on the game you plan to hunt using your pistol with the 155 gr.
Suggest that you contact Berger and ask them.
