HSM‘s Trophy Gold Extended Range line in .300 Remington Ultra Magnum (brand part no. 300RUM185VLD) loads a 185-grain Berger Hunting Very Low Drag bullet for hunters who need a rifle capable of reaching well past typical hunting distances. HSM markets Trophy Gold as the gold standard of premium hunting cartridges, an amazing round the company states will rival even the best handloads, and the extra case capacity of the .300 RUM gives this VLD bullet real velocity to work with. The Berger VLD’s sharp nose is engineered to penetrate roughly 2 to 3 inches before initiating expansion, carrying energy deep rather than dumping it at the surface, exactly the behavior a hunter wants when the shot comes from genuine long range. For .300 RUM hunters who shoot at extended distance, this rifle ammunition is built for that shot.
