Berger 25985: 25 cal 135gr LR Hybrid Target, 1500/Pk

Reloading Bullets

The 25 Caliber 135 Grain Long Range Hybrid Target provides competitive PRS shooters and long range accuracy enthusiasts a level of precision and consistency unmatched by all other Rifle Bullet manufacturers. Utilizing advanced and proprietary manufacturing processes, Berger’s innovative Meplat Reduction Technology (MRT) System applies controlled pressure along the projectile nose, producing a homogeneous and repeatable Rifle Bullet profile for the industry’s most consistent Ballistic Coefficients (BC).

The 25 cal 135gr LRHT boasts a high BC, jump-tolerant hybrid ogive profile that is Doppler Radar verified with less than 1% BC variation. A high BC is desirable for competitive shooting, however, shot-to-shot BC consistency is most critical when engaging targets to 600 yards and beyond. The 135’s are tailored to cartridges such as 25 Creedmoor, 25-06 Remington, 25×47, and 25 Precision Rifle Cartridge (PRC), among others.

Berger Chief Ballistician, Bryan Litz, puts it best, “Our new LRHT Rifle Bullets offer several advantages. Their ultra-sleek profiles provide a higher Ballistic Coefficient (BC) resulting in less wind drift at all ranges. Using the proprietary MRT technology also results in a higher and more consistent BC which is important for reducing dispersion at long range.”

Hybrid Ogive

Hybrid Ogives blend the best aspects of tangent and secant nose shapes into one ogive. Near the bearing surface, the shape starts off as a tangent, which makes it easy to tune, then transitions to a secant ogive, which results in a flatter trajectory and less wind drift.

MRT™

Our patented Meplat Reduction Technology (MRT) increases Ballistics Coefficient (BC) while decreasing BC variability. This means less vertical dispersion, less wind drift, and the highest hit percentage on target.

Consistent Core

Our exacting core manufacturing process is one of the reasons when you buy a box of Berger, you don’t have to worry about sorting by weight. This gives you more reliable drop, consistent BC, and better accuracy.

A Better Bullet Begins with a Better Jacket
Berger’s J4 Precision Bullet Jackets are world-renowned for having the best concentricity available. Each production lot of J4 Jackets measures +/-.0003″ Total Indicated Runout (TIR). No other bullet manufacturer in the world is able to replicate these unprecedented results and claim “J4-consistency.”
