Got any recipes for the 143ELDX? I have all of the mentioned powders.
I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all. Jack O'Connor

H4350, RL16, RL17, Ramshot Hunter.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

46gr of H4831sc with your 143gr ELD-X.
H4350 is good but there are some awesome underrated powders out there like StaBall6.5, Hunter, and Reloder 16

I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

H4350 is the only one I’ve tried, sub MOA groups with 143 gr & 129 gr pills.

I shoot RL26, but would likely shoot anything from the 4350 burn rate on up. I’m trying to make some speed, as my barrel is 18”. RL26 gets me mid 2600s with the 143eldx without standing on it too hard.
Now with even more aplomb
