Berger's other 338 bullets?

[fireguyty]

I remember when the hybrid came out I saw a web page with plans for 300 and 250 grain VLD's. Now I can't find it any where. Anyone know where that page is, or if Berger is still working on those?

I shied away from the hybrid after the bullet slump thing.

I believe that Berger got the issue fixed. Bryan Litz did some testing this past summer. Got a few bullets from him and he said they were good....

Am I an idiot, or does Berger have NO information on their 338 bullets on their website?

I see that, however under products, all bullets, they have no 338 caliber information, guess that will have to do.

I see now also that 338 is totally new for them, I was unaware of that.

Well I like that page, but about a year ago they had a bulletin that had the 300 hybrid, along with a 250 hybrid and both in VLD. The BC numbers were huge. I'd dig a 250 VLD with a high BC.

Re: Berger's other 338 bullets?

I went on their site and cant find anything about the .338 hybrids. Through google i found the explanatory memo on the .338 bullet nose slump issues. http://02b0516.netsolhost.com/blog1/?p=133 Has that issue been worked out or is Berger still selling those with the caveat that they may slump aboove a certain FPS in the .338 LAPUA ???
