[QUOTE="Rucker Ranch, post: 1213302, member: 95491"] I've been working load development on the 143 ELD-X for the last couple weekends using Noslers load data for their 140 gr bullet and US869 powder ranges (85 - 88 gr) and can confirm that I've encountered serious tumbling and fouling issues with the ELD-X. Upon researching this further; you can find other posts that confirm issues with the ELD-X above 3000-3100 fps. This weekend, I'm planning a new ladder test using the same powder (78 - 84.5 gr) per the Hodgdon load data website and another test using Berger 140 gr hybrid target bullets. [/QUOTE]
