[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1513746, member: 30902"] IF you didn't recover the bullets you don't know that they didn't breakup and usually the large exit wound is a good indication that they did. My experience shooting over a hundred hogs and quite a few deer with the ELD-X is that as long as impact velocities are under around 2200FPS they tend to open well and expand consistently. Over 2800 they were unpredictable. Some broke up, some penciled through ribs, some just pretty well detonated with no exit at all. I shot quite a lot of them in the .260's, 7mm STW, and .300wm and Rum. As a rule I'd say they perform pretty well for what they are intended but inside of 300yds is not where they'll give good, consistent terminal performance. [/QUOTE]
