New Berger Bullets

[Ryan Avery]

Rumor has it Berger is releasing two new bullets

245 grain 30 cal bullet, BC over .8

329 grain 338 cal bullet, BC over .9

 

[Broz]

I will be all over both of those

 

[CaNINE]

Sweet - would love to try the 245's in my 300RUM 1:9.3 twist!

 

[TrophyHunter_colorado3322]

this has 300 Norma written all over it! Be nice to see the stability factor on this one

 

[novaman64]

Wow, those must be some super long bullets. Wonder how many rifles are going to be able to shoot them (barrel twist).

 

[CaNINE]

I was wondering if my 9.3 twist will be fast enough. I guess I will find out if these bullets make it to market.

 

[wind gypsy]

That would be amazing. I heard rumors of a 155ish 6.5 too. Sounds perfect.

 

[4ester]

Those heavy 30's would be awesome in a 300 RUM. But I doubt they would stabilize in the 1-10 twist, so no factory rifle could shoot them.

That would be sweet.

The 245gr 30-cal might be worth trying in a 1/10 twist.

FWIW, I've shot 240gr Sierra Matchking out of a 1/10 twist 30-06. Excellent accuracy past 1000 yards at 2610 fps MV.

You'll be flinging those 245's out of your 308.....you know you want to!

So does anyone have a time line on new additions to the EOL line?

 

[338maker]

Cant wait.... these 245's will rock and role outta the ole 30-338 AI
and the 320gr outta the Big stick is gonna be trouble

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ That's how I see it. Go long and hit hard.

155 grain 6.5 would be very interesting.

 

[sportsmans challenge]

Just seen the announcement from shot on these 329's my 338 snipetac is gonna ve trying them for sure when they come out. If a 1:9.4 won't do it I will have to get another one spun up in a high 8 or straight 9 twist.

Tentative late summer to fall 2018 BUT we still have a lot of testing to do! No details on twist rates required yet . Keep an eye on the BERGER WEBSITE for any future announcements on new bullet releases!
Take care,
