First and foremost all Berger Bullets are Match grade. Berger mates J4 bullet jackets with lead core to produce some of the highest quality bullets in the world. Berger line of flat based bullets are for two purposes, Varmint Hunting and Short Range Precision Target Sports. The ability for a bullet maker to produce very accurate flat base bullets is a significant indicator of how focused that bullet maker is on consistency. Flat base bullets are the easiest to make consistent since flat is always flat. The vast majority of flat base bullets are made with a tangent ogive which is easier to produce than the secant ogive. The tangent ogive is also easier than a secant ogive to make shoot well. A tangent ogive of the same length as a secant ogive will not perform as well in the wind however these bullets are used primarily for 300 yards or less so this is of little concern. Simple construction leads to consistent manufacturing of Match Grade Bullets for the reloader.
