Berger bullets same bullet different part number?

[Geezedtee]

Hi. I was using .224 55gr Varmint bullets match grade. Recently bought another box on-line and the name is the same but the part number differs. Old box PN;22011. New box PN:22311. Berger don't show the old number.
Is there any physical difference between the old and the new? Any answers greatly welcome, thanks.

Just a swag on my part. Bullets made with a specific die set there would be lot numbers assigned for various reasons. COULD be a new set of dies. In todays world they would be almost identical.

I believe one number in the Berger part number is quantity....100,500,1000.

Call Berger and inquire...they might know.

Prolly just an indication of 3rd Gen of that bullet?

"The Berger Bullets product number 22011 corresponds to the older stock number for the .22 Caliber 55 grain Flat Base (FB) Varmint Rifle Bullet.

This part number has been updated to a newer one, likely 22311, but the bullet itself is generally considered to be the same design."

Literally, just a Google search.

They are the same bullet. We had a part number "update" a few years back. That is an old box of bullets.

Ask Berger..

There’s a unique idea!
