204 bullet choice


Recommended Posts

hi chaps,just would like your opinion on this if you would be kind enough.

normally shoot the 40grn v max out of my .204 1 in 11 twist wich groups well @ 100 yds but at range they open up eg 200 yrd 3" 300 yds 5-6"

i tried the 40 grn bergers this week and it loves them nice at 100 and 1" at 200 i will try at longer range soon.

 

i am wondering how well do bergers fragment compared to v max i am sure i have heard that the penatration is greater and less energy is dumped on impact?

Hi, I haven't used the 40g but am using the 35g Berger's. Grouping = 3 shots with 1 very slightly enlarged impact hole in the target at 100yds. Foxes shot at under 100yds have large exit hole over that distance is entry wound only . Always dead- no runners. Impact seems to be where I want it with no drift.
