[QUOTE="Wanashoot, post: 2695704, member: 98612"] I also listened to the complete podcast and he was not negative on berger. He talked about numerous bullets and how they performed. He did say that depending on what bullet type tipped or not that the correct shot placement would be different. I do not understand why so many people are so upset about berger vlds. I have had bad luck with them on three occasions so I now use them for target and not hunting. All three failures came from the same lot and were from 60 yards to about 150 yards so it is possible I had a bad batch but I have never hunted with them again. There are failures with everything and human nature leads you to try something different if it happens to you. Mine did not blow up they did not open up. I have had the same problem with a factory load in a 25:06 and I no longer use them either. If you like them and have had good luck with them It is your choice but to come down on people that have had failures and to become so offensive is not right. I know for a fact it can happen. I do not know what kind of a deal that Gunwerks has a with Hornady but that is also there option. [/QUOTE]
