Hey yall, I killed my first buck with a berger bullet yesterday and all I can say is wow. The rifle is a bartlien 7.5 twist 22 creed shooting 85.5 grain berger hybrid , impact was around 3100 fps, the deer was around 160 pounds , at the shot he completely rolled upside down regained his back legs and nose plowed about 40 yards. The bullet entered just behind the front leg expanded and made a golf ball size hole in the opposite rib cage it broke the off side leg completely in two and left the surrounding tissue full of shrapnel. I am amazed at the amount of damage from that little bullet, only downside I see is meat loss. Have a great day
