The Berger Long Range Hybrid Target 6.5mm 144 grain rifle bullet (Berger part no. 26785) is the latest offering in Berger’s Long Range Hybrid Target (LRHT) line. It uses a high-BC, jump-tolerant hybrid ogive profile that is Doppler radar verified to under one percent ballistic coefficient variation, which matters more for competitive accuracy than the raw BC number alone. The 144 grain LRHT is tailored to popular 6.5mm cartridges including 6.5mm Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, 260 Remington, 6.5×284, and 26 Nosler, and it complements Berger’s industry-leading 140gr Hybrid Target with an identical stability factor from 1:8-inch twist barrels.
