95grn Beger VLD's, how do they perform on small varmints?

[6BR]

Hey guys, how do these bullets perform on on small varmints like Pdogs and squirrels. I am going to try and use the 87grn V-Max, but I want to use a more accurate and concentric bullet. I know the splat factor wont be as good as the 87grn V-Max. I would like to hear how they perform on small varmints.

how can't they work on such a small critter? my experience with the bergers has been very similar to the v-max.
"berger bombs" as per your splat factor,i'm sure they will be fine!

Have you used them? If so, have you used them in a 6BR and what was your OAL with them?

I shot the 105 Berger's at PDogs out of a 243ACK 1-9" twist and they just knocked them down. Several times direct hits and they just crawled away. The best bullet I have found for expansion is the 105 Amax. They put the smack down.

Same with me. The Amax worked great. I also use the 58 and 70g for the critters also.

This fall I was shooting pigeons off an old grainery at about 200yds. with my 6x47Lapua loaded with 105VLD's. Made a big puff of feathers with a hole in them but the 50gr. v-max out of my 22-250 would split them in two, or three! I have a box of 105 A-max I need to try next.
