I finally got to shoot some of the 200gr ELD-X's. I loaded them in my 300 WSM with H4350. The max load of 62 gr H4350 gave me 2800 fps with acceptable accuracy. I only had 6 rounds and put 3 into .886" at 100 yards, 2.03" at 200 yards. I can live with that, but will tweak things and might do better. My sources show RL-19 or RL-22 capable of 2900+.

I didn't try anything in the 30-06. I do have some RL-17 and may give your load a try.


Most people don't really want the truth.

They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.
