Dirtfarmer, FWIW I have played with a lot of different handload recipes for the 6.5 Creedmoor, and nothing I have put together so far is as accurate as Hornady's factory ammo with the 143 gr ELD-X. This is not something I've come across before... I have found that I can typically produce ammo that meets or exceeds factory ammo performance in most of the cartridges I reload. Not so with the 6.5 Cr... but in all fairness, I haven't tried ELD-X bullets in my roll-your-owns yet. Maybe it's just that much better a bullet than the others I've tried so far. I hope to do the Hornady component test this winter.
We hear that regularly about factory CM ammo. And it’s not over priced, seems to be available. What’s not to like.
Ya reckon haters are just jealous?
