Berger VLD Hunter .270 Bullets 130gr

The Berger Bullets VLD Hunter is a .270-caliber, 130-grain hunting bullet (Berger part no. 60-27501) built on Berger’s very-low-drag design philosophy. The sharp nose and slightly thinner J4 Precision jacket let the bullet penetrate roughly 2 to 3 inches before it begins to expand, at which point it sheds 40 to 85 percent of its weight and transfers massive hydrostatic shock into the vitals. That combination of controlled penetration followed by dramatic expansion is what has made the VLD Hunter line one of Berger’s most lethal big-game bullets. Each box holds 100 bullets.

Key Specifications

• The .270 caliber (.270" diameter) fits .270 Winchester and related cartridges.
• A 130-grain weight is a fast, flat-shooting choice for deer-class and mixed big game.
• The VLD (very low drag) profile improves ballistic coefficient for a flatter trajectory downrange.
• A thin J4 Precision jacket allows 2 to 3 inches of penetration before the bullet begins to expand.
• On expansion the bullet sheds 40 to 85 percent of its weight, delivering significant hydrostatic shock.
• Each box contains 100 bullets for building hunting ammunition in volume.
• The resulting wound cavity typically runs 13 to 15 inches long within the vital area.
• Rather than a pass-through design, the VLD is built to dump its energy inside the animal.
