Use Berger's Classic Hunter Rifle Ammunition for Custom Performance on Your Next Hunt
Berger Classic Hunter Ammunition uses the Classic Hunter Hybrid bullet, giving custom rifle ammunition performance. The hybrid ogive blends the best aspects of tangent and secant nose shapes which results in flatter trajectory and less wind drift. Exacting manufacturing processes for the core proved consistent ballistic coefficient and better accuracy. The Boat Tail bullet uses J4 Precision Rifle Bullet jackets for construction. J4 Precision Jackets have a Total Indicated Runout (TIR) of +/- .0003 and extremely tight manufacturing tolerances. A thinner jacket wall allows for 2-3" of penetration for rapidly expanding for massive wound cavity. Now you can get the same results and performance as custom hand-loaders with Berger Classic Hunter Rifle Ammunition.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 6.5 Creedmoor was introduced by Hornady in 2008. Uniquely, it was designed for accuracy with long-range competition in mind. Using a 308 Winchester (30 TC, 300 Savage) case shortened to 1.920 inches, it will feed through the shortest existing bolt actions, but remains supersonic to well beyond 1000 yards. Standard velocity is a 140-grain .264-inch bullet at 2820 fps, also making it an effective but mild-recoiling medium-range hunting cartridge. The 6.5 Creedmoor was introduced with little fanfare, but after it started winning matches shooters took notice. This is an unusual phenomenon for a cartridge to suddenly "take off" years after its introduction, but that's the story of the 6.5 Creedmoor--after about 2016 it became one of the most-talked-about cartridges, with both rifle and ammunition offerings expanding rapidly.
