The Berger VLD Hunting 6mm 105gr Boat Tail Bullet (brand part no. 24528) is a 105-grain VLD Hunting Boat Tail component bullet from Berger Bullets built for handloaders working with 6mm rifle cartridges. Berger’s VLD Hunting design uses a sharp nose that penetrates 2 to 3 inches before it begins expanding, then sheds 40 to 85 percent of its weight as shrapnel inside the vital area.

Key Specifications

• Bullet diameter is .243-inch, sized for 6mm rifle cartridges.
• Weighs a nominal 105 grains.
• Bullet style is VLD Hunting Boat Tail.
• Sold boxed in quantities of 100 per box.
• The combination of shrapnel and hydrostatic shock produces a wound cavity Berger describes as 13 to 15 inches long inside the vitals.
• Rather than passing through like an arrow, the VLD is built to dump its energy inside the animal for a fast, humane result.
• As a component bullet, it ships without cases, powder, or primers, ready to load into your own brass.
• Always cross-check current load data from the bullet manufacturer or a trusted reloading manual before working up a charge, since published data changes over time.
• It’s good practice to spot-check bullet weight and seating depth with calipers on a sample from the box before running a full loading session.
