Terminal performance will be basically the same as the 225 sst. Place your shots carefully at close ranges, very large wound channels on broadside shots. I've killed a few with the sst anywhere from 35 yards out to around 575, it has been my go to bullet in 338 wm the last 5 years. That said, I do have some ELD-X coming to work up a new load, I think the bc jump will be worth it.
