Shot a spike elk with a 178 eld-x factory cartridge out of my 308 this year, 409 ranged yards - bang flop. lungs were a mess, boolit not recovered but it was somewhere inside of the offside ribcage as evidenced by the trauma on exterior of off side rib cage.

I'll be trying the 200 eld-x in my 300 wsm once I'm done with break in and final configuration.
