Berger Elite Hunter 6.5 Creedmoor 156gr Ammunition

Berger Elite Hunter 6.5 Creedmoor 156gr

The Elite Hunter round represents Berger's commitment to delivering ammunition engineered specifically for hunters who demand performance from their 6.5 Creedmoor rifles. Whether you're shooting a custom build or a premium factory rifle, this ammunition is designed to take full advantage of the cartridge's capabilities.

Bullet Design

Berger's industry-leading hybrid ogive combines the best of two worlds: an aggressive VLD-style shape toward the tip transitions into a traditional tangent design closer to the bearing surface. This hybrid approach delivers:

• Higher ballistic coefficients for reduced wind drift
• Easier tuning with minimal sensitivity to seating depth variations
• Consistent performance across a wider range of rifle setups

Terminal Performance

The Elite Hunter features a thinner J4 Precision Jacket engineered for rapid expansion on game animals. The bullet is designed to:

• Penetrate 2-3 inches before expansion begins
• Create a massive wound cavity extending up to 15 inches
• Generate hydrostatic shock that typically results in immediate incapacitation

Specifications

• Caliber: 6.5mm Creedmoor
• Bullet Weight: 156 grains
• Muzzle Velocity: 2680 fps
• Packaging: 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case

This ammunition is ideal for hunters seeking a balance of long-range capability and reliable terminal performance on medium to large game animals.
