[QUOTE="JAYgs8163, post: 2217657, member: 37460"] My father shot a small Coues buck at 691 with a 178 A-Max and didn’t get much expansion but did get pass through. Starting velocity on that load was around 2750 from a 24” barrel. Based on that experience I would stay within 500 yards. The A-Max which they don’t make anymore is the same exact bullet as the ELDM with the exception of the improved tip, per Hornady tech I spoke with. [/QUOTE]
