  • Berger's 6 mm Creedmoor 95 Grain Classic Hunter rifle ammunition is designed for hunting small to medium game, such as white tail deer, at close to long range. The 6 mm Creedmoor cartridge was originally made popular by competitive shooters in precision rifle style matches. Now, many hunters have come to realize that the increased velocities with reduced recoil give great results when hunting. This round is built around the 6 mm 95 Grain Classic Hunter Rifle Bullet, which features an industry-leading hybrid ogive. A hybrid Rifle Bullet combines the high BC of a VLD Rifle Bullet (secant ogive) with a traditional Rifle Bullet (tangent ogive). This best of both worlds approach means more reliability, accuracy, and precision with each shot. Berger hunting Rifle Bullets utilize a J4 Hunting Jacket, which is designed to penetrate 2-3" and then begin to expand and create a massive wound cavity up to 15". This delivers maximum organ/tissue damage and extreme hydrostatic shock aiding in an ethical kill. Our #1 goal is a quick, ethical, and humane harvest. We combine this top of the line Rifle Bullet with premium 6mm Creedmoor brass, a high-grade temperature stable powder, and a match grade primer. These are the same high-end match grade components used by competitive long range shooters around the world. We combine these components with precision engineering and manufacturing to give you the most accurate and reliable performance, with repeatable results. This is your ideal ammunition if you are looking to take game at further distances with your 6 mm Creedmoor rifle.

  • The 6.5 mm Creedmoor 135 Grain Classic Hunter rifle ammunition is designed for hunters that want to take full advantage of the 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge for hunting in a magazine fed gas gun or factory class hunting rifle. While the 6.5 mm Creedmoor was originally made famous by competitive precision rifle shooters, hunters quickly adopted the cartridge. This cartridge is able to shoot Rifle Bullets that are ballisticially comparable to heavier calibers, but at higher velocities and with reduced recoil, giving small to medium game hunters a distinct advantage. Berger's 6.5 mm 135 Grain Classic Hunter Rifle Bullet was built with that same mind set of getting the best of both worlds. Classic hunter Rifle Bullets utilize an industry-leading hybrid ogive design, which blends a tangent and secant design to optimize efficiency and reduce wind-drift, giving it a clear advantage against other Rifle Bullets in its weight class. They are built around a J4 Precision Hunting Jacket, which allows for rapid expansion on game animals. Classic Hunters are designed to penetrate 2-3" into the vitals and then begin to expand and create a massive wound cavity up to 15". This delivers maximum organ/tissue damage and extreme hydrostatic shock aiding in an ethical kill. We load these Rifle Bullets with premium top of the line 6.5 mm Creedmoor brass, a temperature stable powder, and match grade primers. By using the same high grade components that long range hunting enthusiests use in their hand loads, we are able to provide you with ammunition that out performs the competition, especially at longer ranges. If you are looking to get the most out of your 6.5 Creedmoor hunting rifle, this is the ammo for you.
