The heart of this load is the bullet, an Elite Hunter 217-grain projectile optimized for long-range hunting use. It boasts a hybrid ogive profile that offers a G1 BC of 0.702 (G7 BC of 0.347), so it is highly efficient, retaining its velocity and bucking wind drift. This projectile requires a twist rate of 1:10 or faster. Berger advertises a muzzle velocity of 2,400 FPS from a 24-inch barrel. At that velocity, it retains over 2,500 foot pounds of kinetic energy past 300 yards.

The MSRP is $83.99 for a box of twenty rounds. Berger also offers ammo options for the 6mm Creedmoor, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .338 Lapua Magnum with Elite Hunter bullets.
