Here’s a 143 ELD X and a 147 ELD M, both out of my CM. The jugs were at 25 yards. The 143 X was 2753 start speed and the 147 averages 2775 from my gun. Both penetrated the same amount of jugs.

I use the 147’s, but I’m just hunting deer and whatever else around here. I’m not sure I’d pick the 143 and think I’m getting a much superior bullet myself. Probably step up to something else like a Scenar or LRX.
