Berger 264 Cal 6.5mm 140gr VLD Hunting Rifle Bullets

The Berger 264 Cal 6.5mm 140gr VLD Hunting Rifle Bullets are high-performance hunting projectiles crafted for serious game hunters using .264″ (6.5 mm) bolt-action and magnum rifles. Featuring Berger’s VLD (Very Low Drag) secant ogive mated to a long tapered boat-tail, these bullets deliver flat trajectories, excellent aerodynamic efficiency, and controlled expansion out to 600 yards—ideal for ethically taking medium to large game.

Each Berger 264 Cal 6.5mm 140gr VLD Hunting Rifle Bullet is manufactured under strict match-grade tolerances, featuring a concentric copper-alloy jacket encasing a precision lead core. Total Indicated Runout is held within ±0.0001″, ensuring consistent bullet-to-bore alignment, uniform muzzle velocities, and repeatable point-of-impact—eliminating the need for hand-sorting.

Key specifications include a bullet diameter of 0.264″, exact weight of 140 gr, sectional density of approximately 0.306, and a G1 ballistic coefficient near 0.620 (G7 ≈ 0.305). Overall length measures about 1.400″, and a recommended barrel twist rate of 1‑9″ or faster stabilizes the Berger 264 Cal 6.5mm 140gr VLD Hunting Rifle Bullets through supersonic and transonic flight phases.

Hunters rely on the Berger 264 Cal 6.5mm 140gr VLD Hunting Rifle Bullets for their terminal performance. When hand-loaded with mid-to-slow-burning powders like Hodgdon H4350 or Alliant Reloder 25, and paired with match primers such as CCI BR4 or Federal 205M, these bullets deliver smooth, consistent expansion and deep penetration, making them effective for deer, antelope, and elk.

The VLD profile and boat-tail of the Berger 264 Cal 6.5mm 140gr VLD Hunting Rifle Bullets reduce drag and wind drift, helping maintain supersonic flight beyond 600 yards. Shooters report clean wound channels, intact bullet integrity, and minimal barrel fouling—attributes highly valued in real-world hunting environments.

Designed for reliable feeding, the Berger 264 Cal 6.5mm 140gr VLD Hunting Rifle Bullets chamber smoothly in bolt rifles and feed dependably from magazines. Consistent seating depth supports uniform internal ballistics and quick follow-up capability in the field.

Combining aerodynamic excellence with match-grade manufacturing and proven field performance, the Berger 264 Cal 6.5mm 140gr VLD Hunting Rifle Bullets are an outstanding choice for precision-driven hunters seeking long-range accuracy and lethal terminal performance from a .264-caliber platform.
