HSM‘s Trophy Gold line in 7mm Remington Magnum (brand part no. BER-7MAG140VLD) loads a 140-grain Berger Very Low Drag hunting bullet for hunters who take the shot most rifles aren’t built to make. The Berger VLD’s sharp nose is engineered around a specific design goal: it penetrates roughly 2 to 3 inches before initiating expansion, a delayed reaction built to carry velocity and energy deep before the bullet opens up, rather than dumping energy at the surface. That same sharp, low-drag nose gives the bullet a high ballistic coefficient, holding its performance at 300 yards and well beyond where most conventional soft points start losing effectiveness. For 7mm Remington Magnum hunters shooting at real distance, this rifle ammunition is built for exactly that shot.
