Solved from this product's advertised 2870 fps, 168gr bullet and G1 BC 0.566, with the sight 1.5" over the bore at standard conditions. Compare every zero for 7mm Remington Magnum.
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 Premium 168-grain Berger Hybrid Hunter is a boat-tailed 7mm Remington Magnum load made for big game. The Berger Hybrid Hunter is a long hunting bullet over a lead core. It leaves the muzzle at 2,870 fps with 3,072 ft-lbs and has a G1 BC of .566.
Zeroed at 200 yards, it drops 7.0 inches at 300 yards and 20.0 inches at 400 yards, arriving with 1,889 ft-lbs. A 100-yard zero leaves it 26.5 inches low at 400 yards. It kicks less than Federal's 175-grain JSP.
If you're cross-shopping, HSM's Trophy Gold 168-grain Berger VLD is the same bullet weight on a higher G1 BC of .617. Hornady's Precision Hunter 162-grain ELD-X carries a G1 BC of .631 and is 18.4 inches low at 400 yards from a 200-yard zero.
- Carries 2,144 ft-lbs at 300 yards
- Still moving at 2,250 fps at 400 yards
- A higher G1 BC than Hornady's Superformance 162-grain SST at .550
- A lead core, so it is out where lead-free ammunition is required
- About 4 percent more estimated recoil than Armscor's USA 165-grain Polymer Tip
- HSM's Trophy Gold 168-grain Berger VLD carries the higher G1 BC at the same bullet weight and holds 127 ft-lbs more at 400 yards
