Reloading Bullets
 
Extreme Long Range shooting (ELR) to distances of two miles and beyond has taken the firearms community by storm. With many of its roots developed from Elite Military Sniper and Special Forces rifle training exercises, ELR enthusiasts are utilizing cutting-edge rifle and ammunition technology to engage targets at distances previously unheard of. As with all other long-range rifle disciplines, Berger has taken the lead with pioneering ELR as well. New Berger ELR Match Solid Projectiles, a brainchild of Berger’s chief ballistician, Bryan Litz, are precision lathe-turned solid copper Rifle Bullets with an optimized VLD ogive design for extreme long-range accuracy. Berger ELR Match Solids are available in 375 caliber with 379-grain and 407-grain offerings. Expect Berger ELR Match Solid Projectiles to be crowned “King of Two Mile” champion!
Features:
Hybrid Ogive: Hybrid Ogives blend the best aspects of tangent and secant nose shapes into one ogive. Near the bearing surface, the shape starts off as a tangent, which makes it easy to tune, then transitions to a secant ogive, which results in a flatter trajectory and less wind drift.
MRT™: Berger's patented Meplat Reduction Technology (MRT) increases Ballistics Coefficient (BC) while decreasing BC variability. This means less vertical dispersion, less wind drift, and the highest hit percentage on target.
Consistent Core: Berger's exacting core manufacturing process is one of the reasons when you buy a box of Berger, you don’t have to worry about sorting by weight. This gives you more reliable drop, consistent BC, and better accuracy.
J4 Target Jacket: J4 Precision Bullet Jackets are the #1 choice of custom bullet manufacturers. They are the most consistent and concentric copper jackets in the world holding an unprecedented +/- .0003” tolerance. The most precise jacket produces a Berger bullet with the lease amount of dispersion at all ranges.

I have three 5 shot groups at 500 meters under an inch and a half with the test barrel. I was afraid that the 7 twist Bartlein would not stabilize these long bullets but it seems too. I have tried three powders and a dozen charge weights, so far they have not been better than the 80.5 full bore for accuracy but I have a different barrel for .22 Dasher that I am gearing up to try.
