Product Details

Description of bullet design and benefits
The 185-grain VLD bullet features an elongated ogive and a streamlined boat-tail to minimize drag and maintain ballistic coefficient (BC) downrange. The match-grade jacket and concentric construction promote uniform expansion when appropriate and excellent bearing-surface alignment for consistent accuracy. This design prioritizes aerodynamic efficiency and precise shot placement at extended ranges.

Performance characteristics

Muzzle Velocity (tested): 3,334 fps.

Muzzle Energy (calculated): 4,567 ft·lb.

These figures reflect factory tested performance for the specified loading and are intended to give a clear expectation of ballistic performance from a standard rifle configuration.

Applications
Optimized for long-range big-game hunting and precision match shooting where high retained energy and flat trajectories are required. Ideal for hunters pursuing elk, moose, or other large game at extended distances where VLD aerodynamics and controlled terminal performance matter.

Emphasis on quality, reliability, and performance
Manufactured to HSM’s QA standards with tight lot control and inspection at each stage of production. Every lot is tested for consistency in velocity, pressure, and accuracy to ensure dependable ballistics and safe function.
