[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 1560313"] I don't have any experience with .30 cal ELD-X bullets but I did witness a 143 ELD-X fail on an elk this last season. My buddy shot a beautiful 6x6 at 240 yards with his 6.5 Creed, the first shot caught him center shoulder and the bull took off. I watched my friend make a great follow up shot on the run that double lunged him, he was very lucky that he got a second bullet in him because the first hit the heavy leg bone and shattered to pieces. They're good bullets but not for close range shoulder shots. I'm going to post a few pics from my testing of close range impacts with bonded and non bonded bullets. [/QUOTE]
