Varmint Success Stories
Shawn
Carlock"I just can't say enough good about these bullets.”
Shawn is a gunsmith, tactical trainer and long range hunter form Rathdrum Idaho. In south Texas, he and shooting partner Chase Stroud took this hog with a called head shot at 953 yards. “The huge BC advantage of the Berger bullets gives me the confidence to take and make a shot like this despite the 16 mph cross wind we had. I just can’t say enough good about these bullets.”
Shawn used the new .338, 300 gr Hybrid backed by H1000 and CCI250 primers in his Nightforce topped, Defensive Edge, 338 Edge Canyon rifle to make the first round hit.
William Kister
"Bergers are excellent for varmint!”
William is a varmint hunter from Prescott, Arizona. William and his hunting partner spent this particular morning calling using a mixture of rabbit distress and challenge howls. Quite suddenly, a coyote came charging out towards them about 300 yards off. He got distracted and began to leave. However, William was quick to respond and used a bark to get him to stop momentarily – and that’s when he took his shot!
William shoots a Howa Axiom 243 varmint rifle. He loaded the Berger 90 grain BT Match Target bullet using H4350 powder and 210 Federal primers.
Bradley
Ward “A ticket from Berger sent them straight to fox heaven!”
Bradley is a varmint hunter from Adelaide in South Australia. At the coldest and latest hours of the night, Bradley hunted for the foxes that had been killing several lambs in the area. “The Bergers shot exact same POI all night through a cold barrel. Bergers stopped them DEAD in their tracks!”
Bradley shoots a Rem 700 trued action built by PSECO, MADDCO, in a 222 Remington. He used Hodgdon powder H322, RWS cases, primed with CCI benchrest primers, and Berger 22 cal 62 grain Match Grade Varmint FB Bullets.
Derek
Brazil “Bergers work great, and their accuracy is awesome!”
Derek is a varmint hunter from Hanford, California. He found a coyote sneaking around his farm, and took the shot at around 330 yards. “Without even trying or any work involved, Berger’s gave me ¼” groups at 100 yards. These bullets work great and accuracy is awesome.”
Derek used a Berger 6mm 80 grain Match Grade Varmint BT, with H414 powder and Match primers. His rifle is a Remington model 243 Winchester with a VX-3 CDS Leupold scope.
Nick
Flood"Bergers perform great!"
They brought both animals down quickly" Nick, a hunter from South Dakota, took these animals on a father and son hunt in the Southwestern valleys of South Dakota. This was Nick’s first coyote hunt. He was ecstatic when he was able to take the first pair of coyotes he spotted (from 200 yards).
Nick shoots a Remington 700 in .243 Winchester with a Leupold VX-I 4-12x40. He used Berger 95 grain Match Grade Hunting VLDs.
