Finally got time this last week to do some range testing with the 142 eld-x hunting bullet. Results so far have been impressive so I thought for the sake of any interested ones I'd post my results.

My platform is a stock Tikka T3 6.5 Swede stainless. Up top is a 6X42 Super Sniper MQ fixed in warn steel Tikka rings.

Lapua brass
Reloader 17
CCI 200 primer
142 eld-x
3.182 OAL

This week I shot 9 3 shot groups at 500 yds all groups cold bore. In 9 groups the largest measured center to center 2.1" while the small group was 1.23"

I'd say the ELD-X is capable of accuracy.
