My son had that experience with the ELDX out of his 280AI on three deer at less than 100 yrds, MV about 2850 fps. All bullets came apart, he sent me pics of the recovered pieces of the bullets, but all deer died. He was not overly impressed.
He has gone back to 160 AB`s.

So far, I`ve nothing but good to say about the Bergers out of the 7`s.
