[QUOTE="RidgeReaper208, post: 1883707, member: 56638"] Shot an better than average sized Black Bear Boar in Alaska with the 220gr ELD-X out of a 300 RUM at 50 yards. Bullet performed perfectly, Beast was dead before the noise report was heard...he rolled off the bank and turned the Salmon stream into a heavy flow blood bath. The ELD-X/M bullets were not designed for short range (inside of a few hundred yards). They were designed for LONG RANGE performance, total expansion and energy delivery at lower velocities (1600-2000fps). Doesn’t matter what bullet you use, if you shoot an animal in the shoulder you will have blood-shot meat (aka...non edible meat). Try shooting an animal with these bullets behind the front shoulder or even back & a tad high..double lung the beast! Dead is dead, no matter what there will always be ruined meat unless a head shot is administered! Keep shooting & hunting...always push yourself further, farther & harder. Like everything else in life, we get out what we are trying to achieve by putting our best foot forward every time we step into God’s Country! 😎🤙 [/QUOTE]
