Berger 6.5 PRC 156gr Elite Hunter Ammunition

If you carry a 6.5 PRC into elk or big mule deer country, Berger’s 156gr Elite Hunter is built for that job. The Hybrid Ogive gives you predictable flight in the wind, while the J4 Hunting Jacket is tuned to open reliably after initial penetration—clean, ethical results when the shot matters.

Features That Matter in the Field

• Hybrid Ogive: tangent start for easy tuning, blending into a secant nose to lower drag and reduce wind drift at distance.
• Consistent Core: tight manufacturing keeps BC and drop repeatable—no weight sorting required.
• Boat Tail: smooths the ride through the transonic window for steadier downrange performance.
• J4 Hunting Jacket: industry-leading concentricity; engineered to penetrate before expanding for dependable terminal effect.
