Not yet...just reveived a box of the 95 VLD's and a new 6mm BR with 1:8 twist barrel. As soon as the weather warms up I will post the results.

Should work very well, I'm shooting this bullet in a 10 twist Shilen with excellent results.

They shoot great in a 1 in 9.25 twist factory Savage barrel. I shot some great groups at 600 yards with them, and finished 2nd and 3rd place in a couple of IBS matches. I used H4350 powder. I had good luck with them out to 1000 yards as well.
I would have to say that I prefer the berger 108 in a faster twist barrel. I find that they shoot flatter, and get to the target faster.
You may want to try BIB 108 flat back bullets, they have a recommended twist of 1 in 10 but dang they shoot good. It depends on your barrel, they may not work. I find that they are awesome in my 1 in 8 twist.
Lots of people have reported good things with Hornady 105 A-max in factory 1 in 9.25 barrels.

thanks for the info was thinking about trying some with the hunting jacket since on bergers website they show up as the lightest hunting bullet in 6mm
