[QUOTE="desertcrr1, post: 1593807, member: 92146"] I shoot a 6.5x47 Lapua, a little smaller case capacity than the cm, but mostly the same ballistically. I own a gun range, so get all the shooting I want, whenever and any distance. I've chronoed (labradar) just over 2000 rounds through it with Berger and Hornady 130 to 147 from 350 to 1760 yds. At 1500, you are entering the transonic region or very close to it at which point .5 moa won't hold up always. Your groups seem to be shot at 100 yards, not 1500, unless the wind all the way out is dead still, a condition I've never shot in. I'd like to say I get good results with the 147 ELD, but I don't. I like the 130 ELD and 140 ELD and shoot them very often. Tried the 147s in the x47 and in a .260 Rem and never used them again. If I could shoot "round" groups at 1000 yards in just moderate winds, I wouldn't worry about bullets. I have some unused 147 ELds you can add to your sale. [/QUOTE]
