Berger BT Target 73-Grain .22 Caliber Rifle Bullets (Berger part no. 22720) use a boat-tail base to cut drag compared with a flat-base design, built specifically for competitive accuracy in .22-caliber match rifles. Every bullet uses Berger’s J4 Precision Jackets, held to .0003-inch total indicated runout, keeping construction balanced and consistent even at the high spin rates modern rifles generate. As part of Berger’s Match Grade Target line, this bullet is built for record-setting accuracy on paper rather than hunting expansion. Sold in a bulk 1000-count box, it’s built for shooters logging serious round counts on the line.
