Berger Long Range Hybrid Target Rifle Bullets .22 cal .224" 85.5 gr LRHT 1000/ct

The Berger Long Range Hybrid Target Rifle Bullets .22 caliber 85.5 grain LRHT ammunition represents a precision-engineered projectile designed specifically for competitive long-range rifle competition and precision target work. These .224" diameter bullets combine Berger's advanced Meplat Reduction Technology (MRT) System with the company's proprietary manufacturing processes to deliver exceptional consistency in ballistic coefficient—a critical factor for shooters pushing beyond conventional distances where wind drift and bullet drop become primary accuracy variables.

The 85.5-grain hybrid projectile weight balances velocity retention with stable flight characteristics in the .22 caliber, optimizing for mid-to-long-range external ballistics. The improved center of gravity and controlled Meplat (nose tip) geometry produced by MRT ensure shot-to-shot ballistic coefficient consistency—meaning tighter velocity spreads and more predictable point-of-impact shifts at extended ranges. This consistency advantage accumulates across a 1,000-round bulk purchase, making this package ideal for serious competitors working up load data and running extended practice strings without batch-to-batch variance complications. The 1,000-count specification allows for substantial practice volume while maintaining standardized ammunition characteristics.

These bullets serve competitive riflemen, precision reloaders, and distance shooters who prioritize measurable ballistic performance over general-purpose hunting or plinking applications. Competitors working with .22-caliber platforms—including 22 PPC, .220 Swift, .22-250 Remington, and similar cartridges—will find the 85.5-grain LRHT weight suited to moderate velocity ranges where the hybrid design excels. Reload-to-reload consistency directly impacts group dispersion at 1,000+ yards, where environmental variables (wind, spin drift, target resolution) already challenge precision. Bulk ammunition purchases of this type support extended load development and match preparation without frequent resupply interruptions.
