berger bullets for hunting

[schoots]

Is there anyone that uses berger bullets for hunting ? If there is, have you had any problems with them expanding ?

There’s a pretty lengthy thread under hunting and sporting arms, check it out

No your meat will be peppered with copper should you recover the animal.

Tried them once. Got the deer but what a mess. I use partitions and wondered why I even bothered with them. However, they make nice little groups on paper.

Are they really that bad, I thought to use them as well and have two boxes ready to start loading...
Would you think accubonds are way better option for accuracy and meat save on the end...
Love Barnes for that reason but heard a lot of issues beyond bush hunting

I used Berger before, wow they sure do hit hard, and yes they do make a mess! I'm using JLK's now, basically they are the same as Berger. Dropped 2 deer so far with them, just a touch over 300 yrds, both dropped where they stood. I like them, and have had good luck with them.
