Berger VLD Target Rifle Bullet is one of the flattest shooting Rifle Bullets currently available on the market. Emulated by many others, the VLD Target Rifle Bullet incorporates a secant ogive design that allows the Rifle Bullet to experience less drag as it travels to the target. This reduced drag is why the VLD shoots flatter, experiences less wind drift, and retains higher velocity than other designs. A favorite loading technique for the VLD’s is touching the rifling for single-shot applications, although some rifles may perform better with as much as .150″ from the rifling. Berger VLD Target Rifle Bullets are extremely popular for competitive long-range applications. They are built with highly consistent J4 Target Jacket construction, highly favored by custom Rifle Bullet makers.
