    Curious if anyone here is really using these Berger 168gr hybrids in their 308. How sensitive to jump are they? Do they suffer the same issue as the SMK 168 past 800 yards where they disappear (issa joke). Or am I better off sticking with the 175gr VLD target bullets?
     
    I use them at 800,900,1000 for Palma matches with an AR10. They are definitely not your father's SMK. H4895 or Varget-lots of it. Palma brass is a bonus.
     
    several of us saw significantly better groups at .020+" off the lands. closer than that was worse. try on the lands and then .025" off, one of the those will be much better than the other. not finicky at all.
     
    Thank you guys for the info! I’ll see what happens with the last 50 VLD’s I have and then will probably make the switch
