Berger 308 200.20X Hybrid Target Availability?

[Florida Wally]

Thought I would revive this thread since I am running low on 200.20x. A few months back they were plentiful, but now they are scarce. Is there a cycle when these get run by Berger? If so, how long between runs? Also, if I need a similar bullet to shoot and conserve my 200.20x for matches, what would be a good alternative to use? 200 hybrids, 185 hybrids, or any other weight/brand? Right now I am going back to 175 SMK’s, but load development isn’t going so good.

The 200 Hybrid is usually more available than the 20x. It's easier to tune and you only lose about 50fps at 1000 yards. Unless you're a top end FTR competitor I'd be really happy with the hybrids.

If you're shooting midrange, juggernauts are the bullet to use.

Thanks. I’ll keep an eye out for 200 hybrids. the juggernauts are as hard to find as the 200.20x.

Anyone have any information on the availability/production of Berger's 308 200.20X Hybrid Target bullets?

I purchased a couple hundred last month on bullets.com, but they're not available now and haven't been able to find them elsewhere. I chose to develop loads with them in my new rifle, and things are going very well so far. I now fear I've found a great shooting bullet that I won't be able to shoot for a while, and I don't want to have to start the development process with a different bullet, just because I can't get more of the 200.20X's now.

Thanks. I’ll keep an eye out for 200 hybrids. the juggernauts are as hard to find as the 200.20x.
