Berger 195 Grain Elite Hunter 284 Caliber (7mm / .284 Diameter)
The Berger 195 Grain Elite Hunter represents the pinnacle of long-range hunting bullet technology. Featuring Berger's industry-leading hybrid ogive design—which blends tangent and secant profiles to optimize aerodynamic efficiency—the Elite Hunter delivers an exceptional balance of high BC, reduced wind drift, and minimal sensitivity to seating depth. Built with a thinner J4 Precision Hunting Jacket for controlled expansion on game, these bullets are identical in external shape and performance to Berger's renowned Hybrid Target series but engineered specifically to deliver devastating terminal performance on big game.
Extreme Outer Limits Collaboration: The EOL Elite Hunter line was developed through a direct partnership between Berger Bullets and Bob Beck of Extreme Outer Limits TV. These bullets were designed specifically for the extreme long-range hunting scenarios that EOL is famous for—where every fraction of BC matters and terminal performance at distance is non-negotiable. When you see the EOL name on a Berger bullet, you know it was built for the most demanding hunting situations on the planet.
Key Features
- Hybrid Ogive Design: Blends tangent and secant profiles—easy to tune like a tangent with the high BC performance of a secant design
- J4 Precision Hunting Jacket: Engineered thinner than target jackets for 2–3 inches of penetration before rapid expansion, creating wound cavities up to 15 inches
- Extreme Hydrostatic Shock: The combination of high velocity retention and controlled expansion produces devastating energy transfer on game animals
- Match-Grade Consistency: Every J4 jacket is held to +/- 0.0003" tolerance for the most consistent and concentric copper jackets in the world
- Seating Depth Tolerant: The hybrid ogive is less sensitive to seating depth variations, making it easier to achieve excellent accuracy across different rifles and chambers
- Boat Tail Base: Minimizes base drag for superior ballistic performance at all ranges

28 Nosler and the 195 EOL, perfect long range combo
If you are looking for a great long range cartridge, bullet combo you would be hard pressed to find a better combo than the 28 and EOL 195's. Flat shooting, hard hitting combo.

GAME CHANGER!
Hands down best 7mm bullet made

Awesome bullet
I shoot them out of a straight .284 with an 8 twist barrel. I average 2743fps with an sd of 4.4!! They are super sccurate and easy to tune. I hope you continue to make them. I use them for long range competition and F-class.

great long range bullet!
You absolutely need to listen to the recommendations for barrel twist. these bullets hit extremely hard at long ranges, they have a little more drop than the 168 VLD I was shooting, but it's a similar trajectory with almost 1.5x the energy at 1000 yards.

They work awsome

Berger 195 gr. 7mm bullets
Bob, these bullets shot very well in my 7LRM .The best groups were attained with H-1000 powder. However I hit the pressure wall at 2850 FPS and because of that I get no real advantage over the 180's. It is just as you told me it would be, the case is too small. There are certainly no flies on this performance as it gives greater momentum to the load and its shorter range performance may be improved in that close range bullet blow ups should be eliminated.

best 7mm bullet yet
I always am thankful that Berger is pushing the envelope on bullets. These are going to be a big step up. I was very upset that I paid 15 bucks more a box from this site than other sites that have them. It will definitely be in my mind for future purchases.
