Hsm 308 Winchester 185 Grain Berger Hunting VLD Match Trophy Gold Extended Range 20/Box

The HSM 308185VLD Trophy Gold Extended Range 308 Win 185 gr Berger Hunting VLD Match is a type of rifle ammunition designed for precision hunting at extended ranges, specifically 300 yards and beyond.

 Key features: Bullet: It uses a 185 grain Berger Hunting VLD (Very Low Drag) bullet. Ballistic Design: The VLD bullet features a sharp hollow point nose, a boat-tail design, and a secant ogive profile, maximizing ballistic efficiency and leading to flatter trajectories with less wind drift. Terminal Performance: This bullet is engineered to penetrate 2 to 3 inches before expanding rapidly upon impact. It then sheds between 40% and 85% of its weight as shrapnel into the surrounding tissue, creating a large, devastating wound cavity (approximately 13-15 inches long) due to fragmentation and hydrostatic shock. This design ensures a quick and humane harvest, according to HSM. Muzzle Velocity & Energy: It has a muzzle velocity of 2606 fps and a muzzle energy of 2790 ft-lbs, providing the power needed for big game hunting at extended distances. Accuracy: HSM Trophy Gold ammunition is loaded with premium components and powders insensitive to altitude and temperature variations, resulting in consistent performance and match-grade accuracy. Application: Ideal for hunting big game at extended ranges (300+ yards), it is also suitable for precision shooting and target practice. It can be used for larger varmints where overpenetration is not a concern. Construction: The bullet features a J4 Precision Hunting jacket, engineered for controlled penetration. The ammunition itself uses Boxer-primed brass cases, making it reloadable.
