108 Berger

Have you tried the Berger 105 Hybrid? I was a Berger Target 108 fan until I tried the Berger 105 Hybrid and that is my go to 6mm bullet now.
I can't get the 105 Hybrids to shoot in my BR. If memory serves, I could not get them to shoot in my Dasher either. I hadn't seen this thread but discovered performance shooting on my own an ordered some. Top-notch operation. They seem to be out of the 108's now (luckily I got some in time for my last match). If anyone has any leads for more, I can sure use them.

I have an unopened 500 ct box of 108's I can spare. $180 shipped via USPS Priority if you still need them. Just shoot me a PM.
 
You guys are the best marketing group ever invented. You post it in this thread and its sold out in minutes!!!
I'm just a buyer not affiliated with them.
I call them. Never ordered off the site.
BR shooters buy by the 2k ...so I guess they go fast.
 
Are you shooting an 8 twist barrel? The hybrids work best with a faster rate of twist.
Hi Jay, Yes, an 8 twist and I have a 7.5 I just received for the day this one gives up the ghost. Admittedly, most of my 105 Hybrid testing was done with a different barrel (still 1:8). I have about 1500 rounds through this one so I hope to just keep shooting what I know it shoots so I can get through these last few winter matches and if I shoot this rifle (my best shooter) as little as possible, maybe get far along midrange season.

Just sharing my experience here. I know the Berger web site states a faster twist than an 8 is needed for the hybrids but I've never had a problem getting them to stabilize with an 8 twist. Even at 500' elevation and freezing temperatures.

That doesn't surprise me one bit. I shot the hybrids some and found I shot inconsistent with them. I bought a 7.5 twist barrel to try them in but haven't shot it yet. I have not been to a match in almost 4 years with way to many other things to do right now I don't know when I will get around to testing the 7.5 twist barrel.
