Limited Edition Berger Bullets???

[yodave]

I have a few boxes of these "excellent for Vatmints" bullets, Any Idea where I can find some Vatmints out to try them on? Or should I just stick to the the target recommendation.

Or that 1 in 19" twist barrel...

rifles got a 17 twist so thats no issue

Is there an open season on Vatmints?

 

[yodave]

There has got to be a open season on them, obviously someone somewhere shot one with these bullets, this is how we know that they are excellent for this choice.

125grain .308 vatmint bullets, these are a little heavier then my 115grain vatmint bullets so far I have only been able to test them on paper. Anyone know of a open vatmint season?

Chinese knock offs

 

[yodave]

I hope they didn't come from off shore, well if they did its okay so long as they shoot

Iron core prated burrets ?

 

[sulisa]

Oh Rord, maybe they're Norinco-made Bergers?

Cool find, though!

 

[Azazle]

That's awesome.. I've never actually looked that close at mine.. I might take a peek and see if I was fortunate enough to pick up some of the "limited edition" run!

probally just a typo... "r" and "t" are side by side call berger to confirm this.

I am going with the norinco knock off theory

 

[msg.drew]

Wouldn't suprise me at all. I'd still call/email berger either way to see whats going on.

hmmm. and where does one find these vatmint bullets....

I looked in my safe I only found one gun that had a twist slower then 19" and it was a muzzleloader...lol

 

[yodave]

I have 2 centerfires that both share the same 17 twist rate, one is a 30x44 and the other is my 30BR. 125 grain is the recommended heaciest bullet that a 17 twist will stablize, be interesting to try these in a 19 twist though, The 30x44 holds better then half moa out to 600yards with 135 grain bergers.

Because you're such a nice guy, I really do want to let you know that you're really setting yourself up for some "Captain Obvious" comments!

Thanks Joe, but he might be onto something. I just opened one of these boxes and it appears that the point is on the wrong end of the bullet

The point is not on the wrong end, they're the new extreme boatail flat nose bullets.
