The Berger .300 Norma Magnum 230gr Hybrid OTM Tactical Rifle Ammunition (Berger part no. 62010) is a tactical load that Berger says was purpose built to meet the accuracy and reliability requirements of elite special forces units. It is a 300 Norma Magnum load built around a 230-grain bullet from Berger’s OTM Tactical line, rated at 2934 fps. The 230-grain Hybrid bullet gives a higher ballistic coefficient than the 215-grain offering from Berger, at a cost in muzzle velocity. Berger recommends it for extended long-range shooting by competitors and Mil/LE operators. Each box contains 20 rounds.
