[QUOTE="86alaskan, post: 1718779, member: 75933"] The problem I found with the ELD-x was that it can still be too frangible. We shot a couple caribou at about 200yds with the 143gr 6.5mm. MV was 2750fps, so impact wasn't anything high or special. the only bullet that exited didn't hit anything solid, and killed decently enough. the others hit ribs and exploded inside, not bad on open tundra, but in the woods that can make for trick tracking. I'd much rather prefer a bullet that pops open and passes through like the NP or copper solid. [/QUOTE]
