300wsm berger bullet for deer

[Big Bob]

I have a 300wsm and would like advice whether to use the Berger 155gr match grade VLD hunting bullet or the Berger 168gr match grade VLD hunting bullet.
This is for deer, and I know I'm over gunned but I need to use what I've got.
I would really appreciate any help. Thanks.

See which groups the best. The deer won't know the difference.

Know this doesn't help but I've used 168 Barnes ttsx and loved it in the 300 wsm. 600 yard deer kills. I've used the 175 Berger vld but never got as good of groups. Did kill a deer at 150 yards with the 175 and it did as advertised went in and grenades the internals.

For deer I have had great luck with the new Berger hunting 168 classic.

Performs GREAT on deer. I have never had one take a step.
It is much easier to load to mag length.

BC is HIGHER for the Classic 168 compared to the VLD. .496 to .473


I can load this anywhere from 3000 fps to 3250 fps and get it to shoot.


I use Ramshot Magnum with federal 215 primers in RP or nosler brass.
RL22 works good as does alliant Power pro 4000.

just my two cents.
