What has been the collective experience with the ELDX bullet at close range - say 30-40 yards being launched around 2900-3000?
I called Hornady to get a bit of info on the 175 ELDX loads and discussing what I had in mind, he recomended against the ELDX for shots at that range and velocity (7PRC for reference). He opined it would not give an exit - which I'd expect - but did not give a glowing review of encounters with shoulder bones at that distance/velocity.
I can testify only of the 143 from a CM @ 30 yrds……😂😂😂! memtb
