[QUOTE="tbrice23, post: 1378018, member: 59502"] I am loading 150gr ELDX in a 7mm WSM at 3175 fps in a 24" bbl. Yesterday I was set up for a 500 to 600 yard shot over the deer path. Well, a snitch doe walked out at 80 yards and was about to blow my cover... I have never hunted with this bullet before, I've only used Berger for many years. I expected the bullet to either disintegrate or pencil through without expansion at such close distance. I realy had no clue. The shot was in the boiler room right behind the front leg. She was DRT. Not another heart beat. 1/2" entrance and 2" exit. So I would not hesitate to use it for close shots, now to connect farther out. [/QUOTE]
