Description

The Berger .30 Caliber 155.5 grain Fullbore Target is one of those projectiles that has earned its reputation on the firing line rather than in marketing copy. Built around a tangent ogive profile with a boat-tail base and Berger's J4 Precision target jacket, it's a match-grade .308 diameter bullet aimed squarely at Palma, Target Rifle, and F-class competitors who want repeatable accuracy without fighting their load the whole way there. It carries a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.473 and a G7 of 0.242, with a sectional density of 0.234, and it likes a 1:13 twist or faster.

Why the 155.5 Fullbore Earned Its Palma Reputation

This bullet was designed specifically for modern Palma rifle use in international competition at distances out to 1,000 yards. Where it really shines is forgiveness. The tangent ogive makes it easy to seat and tune across different rifles, throats, and seating depths, which is a big reason so many loaders reach for it when building a new .308 match load. Shooters routinely report tight groups with a healthy jump to the lands rather than needing to be jammed, and it's known for playing nicely with proven powders like Varget and 8208 XBR.

Loading the Berger 155.5 Grain Fullbore Target

Because it's a tangent design and not a VLD, it doesn't demand that you chase the rifling. Plenty of competitors find their sweet spot anywhere from roughly 10 to 40 thousandths off, and it tolerates magazine-length seating better than many long-range options, which makes it handy where SAAMI overall length matters. The J4 Precision jacket holds extremely tight tolerances, giving you the shot-to-shot consistency that keeps vertical dispersion in check at distance.

This is a reloading component, not loaded ammunition, so you'll need your own brass, powder, and primers to put it to work. For anyone building a serious .308 or .30 caliber match load who values an easy-to-tune, dependable projectile, the 155.5 Fullbore is a classic for good reason.

Frequently Asked Questions

What twist rate do the Berger 155.5 Fullbore Target bullets need?

Berger lists a minimum twist of 1:13 inches or faster for this bullet. In the real world, many competitors run them successfully in 1:12 and 1:11 barrels for Palma and F-class work. A faster twist like 1:12 is a common choice for these longer 155-class projectiles.

Do the 155.5 Fullbore bullets need to be seated into the lands?

No. Unlike Berger's VLD designs, the Fullbore uses a tangent ogive and is well known for being forgiving on seating depth. Many loaders find their best accuracy with a jump of roughly 10 to 40 thousandths off the lands, so there's no need to jam them.

Is this loaded ammunition or a reloading component?

This is a reloading component, not loaded ammunition. You're getting 100 bullets only, so you'll supply your own brass, powder, and primers to build your match loads.

What's the Berger 155.5 Fullbore Target best used for?

It was designed for Palma rifle competition at distances out to 1,000 yards and is a favorite for Target Rifle and F-class as well. The high BC and boat-tail base help it hold velocity and track true well beyond mid-range, making it a strong pick for .308 Win match load development.
