Solved from this product's advertised 2900 fps, 109gr bullet and G1 BC 0.568, with the sight 1.5" over the bore at standard conditions. Compare every zero for 6mm Creedmoor.
How to read it: filled circles are the near and far zero, where the bullet's path crosses the line of sight;the triangle is the peak (max ordinate). The shaded band is the 8" vital zone, ±4" either side of the line of sight. The dashed line marks the edge of the hold-dead-on window. The chart is zoomed to where the zero matters; the tables below run to 500 yards.

Product Overview
Federal Gold Medal 109-grain Berger LRHT is an open-tip match 6mm Creedmoor load made for competition and long-range target work. Its bullet is Berger's Long Range Hybrid Target, a hollow point on a long boat tail and the heaviest Berger Federal loads in the caliber. It leaves the muzzle at 2,900 fps with 2,035 ft-lbs and a G1 BC of .568.
With a 200-yard zero it drops 6.8 inches at 300 and 19.5 inches at 400. From a 100-yard zero the drop at 400 is 25.9 inches.
If you're cross-shopping, Barnes Precision Match 112-grain OTM is heavier again on a G1 BC of .624 and starts 60 fps faster, and from a 200-yard zero it drops 18.2 inches at 400. Hornady Match 108-grain ELD Match sits at nearly the same bullet weight on a G1 BC of .536, 60 fps faster at the muzzle.
- A higher G1 BC than every match load compared except Barnes Precision Match 112-grain OTM
- Less estimated recoil than Barnes Precision Match OTM in the same rifle
- Still moving at 2,278 fps at 400 yards
- The slowest start of the match loads compared
- A match hollow point with nothing in it for game. Hornady's Precision Hunter ELD-X is the caliber's lead-core hunting load
