Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles 6.5 bullets 143 ELD-X vs 140BT

Found a few pictures of ELD-X performance I thought I would share.

This is a 7mm 150gr ELD-x I recovered from an 8pt, that I intially gut shot as it was moving through the woods. I had to track the buck up and make a follow up shot. The follow up shot that led to this bullet being recovered was roughly 60ish yds. This load was 60.5 gr H4831sc with a avg velocity of 2963fps.




This doe was shot broadside from about 150 yds. Same load as above, 60.5 gr H4831sc with a avg velocity of 2963fps. Bang, Flop, exit wound is shown in the picture.



These pictures show the damage done on the inside. This is the same doe as in the picture above.
Exit wound is on the left side ribcage
