ELD X bullets

[safety fred]

Anyone using them in a 6.5 Creedmoor?

I'm shooting the 143 ELD-x bullets out of my Creedmoor. They are shooting good. the creedmoor was my winter project and I have shot the 140 amax, the berger 140 hybrid, and the 140 eld match (from factory ammo). The 143 is shooting slightly better than the berger for me. I have been consistently shooting slightly over 1/2 moa at 200 yards. the other day I put 5 bullets in a 3 inch group at 500 yards. I like em.

What are you using to hunt with, Factory ammo? How does it do? both H4350 and RL 17 have shown to give good accuracy and velocity out of mine. I lean toward the H4350.

Whitetail deer anywhere from 200 to 500 yards, from my rock pile Hilton warm and dry. I am not happy with Berger hunting the Hornady SST's OK not great. Nosler Accubond hunter best so far. LR hunter savage is a fine rifle just need to find a better bullet, I'm thinking the ELDX may be the answer. H 4350 seems best so far for me. I have a very old lot of Dupont IMR 4350 and it is great but it is running out all powder cans have a bottom even if they start at 8 lbs. shoot straight fred gun)
