Berger’s new 6mm 120 Grain Long Range Hybrid Target (LRHT) bullet has officially made history, powering Erich Mietenkorte to victory at the 2026 Iron Man Metallic Silhouette Championship. Using the 120 LRHT, Mietenkorte not only claimed the High Power and Overall Aggregate titles but also tied the all-time aggregate record and completed the prestigious Bull River Ultra Slam (knocking down 20 consecutive Rams)

The Iron Man Silhouette Championship lives up to its name. Over the course of the two-day event, competitors fire a grueling 320 shots for record, all from the standing offhand position—two 40-shot Smallbore Rifle matches each morning and two 40-shot High-Power Rifle matches each afternoon. Targets range from 40 to 100 meters for Smallbore (.22 LR) and 200 to 500 meters for High-Power (centerfire).

“Berger’s new 6mm 120 Grain Long Range Hybrid Target bullets performed exactly how you’d want in a championship,” said Mietenkorte. “Vihtavuori N140 with 120 LRHT’s produced outstanding precision from the start. Five-shot groups at 200 meters averaged 1/4 MOA, and that accuracy held all the way to 500 meters.”

Designed for long-range precision, the Berger 6mm 120 Grain LRHT is heaviest-in-class and highest performance and features:

• Industry-leading 0.328 G7 ballistic coefficient (BC)

• Hybrid ogive design for easy tuning and jump tolerance

• Meplat Reduction Technology (MRT) for enhanced consistency

• Doppler radar-verified performance with less than 1% BC Standard Deviation
