Berger Match Grade Hunting Bullets .270 Cal .277" 150 Gr Vld Hunter 100/Box
Berger Match Grade Hunting Bullets in .270 caliber are purpose-built for hunters who demand terminal performance backed by engineering. These .277" 150-grain VLD (Very Low Drag) Hunter bullets combine the ballistic efficiency that Berger is known for with a hunting-specific design that prioritizes rapid, ethical kills on big game. Whether you're handloading for a .270 Winchester, .270 WSM, or similar cartridge, a box of 100 gives you the volume to develop loads, practice, and hunt with confidence.
The VLD Hunter profile delivers a sharp, streamlined nose that minimizes drag downrange—critical for maintaining velocity and energy at distance. The slightly thinner jacket is engineered to initiate expansion after 2 to 3 inches of penetration, allowing the bullet to shed 40 to 85 percent of its weight as fragmentation into vital tissue. This combination of controlled expansion and internal energy transfer creates a substantial wound channel without relying on deep, through-and-through performance. The result is fast incapacitation and minimal tracking, which every ethical hunter appreciates.
Match Grade quality means each bullet is held to exacting tolerances for concentricity and weight, so your handloads shoot to the same point of impact and group tightly on steel or at game. These aren't bulk plinking rounds—they're precision hunting ammunition built for .270 hunters who've invested in quality rifles and glass and want bullets that match that commitment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What .270 rifles are these bullets compatible with?
These .277" diameter bullets are suitable for .270 Winchester, .270 WSM, and other .270 cartridges. However, handload compatibility depends on your specific rifle's chamber, barrel twist, and seating length. Always work up loads carefully starting at published minimums and verify safe operation in your rifle.
Are these bullets ready to shoot, or do I need to handload them?
These are component bullets sold for handloading. You'll need to load them into cartridge cases with powder, primers, and your reloading equipment. They are not factory-loaded ammunition.
What makes the VLD Hunter different from other hunting bullet designs?
The VLD Hunter combines a streamlined, low-drag profile with a jacket designed to initiate expansion after initial penetration. This controlled-expansion approach directs energy into the vital area rather than relying on full penetration through the animal.
How many bullets come in a box?
Each box contains 100 bullets, giving you ample supply for load development, range testing, and hunting season.
