50010_6.5_mm_PRC_156_Grain_Elite_Hunter.png

Berger’s 6.5 Precision Rifle Cartridge (PRC) 156 Grain Elite Hunter ammunition utilizes Berger’s 156 gr Elite Hunter bullet, which is the heaviest-in-class bullet which is a favorite for serious handloaders and accuracy enthusiasts stalking mid-to-large sized game. This allows non-handloaders to get the most accuracy and performance on game that they can get from the 6.5 PRC cartridge.

New 6.5 PRC Elite Hunter ammunition proves that elk are no match for the 156 Grain bullet. Berger Elite Hunter ammunition is assembled with the finest premium cartridge cases, clean burning and temperature stable propellant, and Berger’s field-tested Elite Hunter projectiles. Berger Elite Hunter ammunition features a high BC, hybrid-ogive Elite Hunter bullet intended for serious hunters demanding an ethical, long-range precision solution. Elite Hunter bullets utilize Berger’s J4 Hunting Jacket, which allows 2-3″ penetration before producing extreme hydrostatic shock and a massive wound cavity to the vitals. The Elite Hunter deposits its energy where most effective, inside the animal.

Elite Hunter Hybrid Features

Hybrid Ogive

Hybrid Ogives blend the best aspects of tangent and secant nose shapes into one ogive. Near the bearing surface, the shape starts off as a tangent, which makes it easy to tune, then transitions to a secant ogive, which results in a flatter trajectory and less wind drift.

Consistent Core

Our exacting core manufacturing process is one of the reasons when you buy a box of Berger, you don’t have to worry about sorting by weight. This gives you more reliable drop, consistent BC, and better accuracy.

Boat Tail

Boat Tail bullets provide an aerodynamic advantage at longer ranges over their flat base counterparts, especially while transitioning from transonic to subsonic velocities.

J4 Hunting Jacket

J4 Precision Bullet Jackets are the #1 choice of custom bullet manufacturers. They are the most consistent and concentric copper jackets in the world holding an unprecedented +/- .0003” tolerance. J4 hunting jackets are produced slightly thinner to allow for 2-3″” of penetration before rapidly expanding, producing extreme hydrostatic shock and a massive wound cavity.

A Better Bullet Begins with a Better Jacket

Berger’s J4 Precision Bullet Jackets are world-renowned for having the best concentricity available. Each production lot of J4 Jackets measure +/-.0003″ Total Indicated Runout (TIR). No other bullet manufacturer in the world is able to replicate these unprecedented results and claim “J4-consistency.”
