Question; the most consistent load to date with out question lol is with 75.7 grains of RL-26 under Fed 215GM primer RP brass with 195 grain ELD-M. The 200 grain ELD-X is nowhere near this accurate nor is the 212 ELD-X. Would you hunt with this bullet?
 
Killed lots of deer with a 168eldm in a 308 and 2 with a 200eldx in a win mag. They work well but stay off bone or things can get messy. Once below 2600fps or so they hold up well. Your 195gr load is very close to my 200gr eldx load and I'm getting close to 3100fps.

Thanks for the insight I had a feeling they might blow up if bone was hit.
 
Old thread but I'm interested in the 195 ELDM from a 300 WSM.
I've used the 130 gr 6.5mm at 2850 muzzle a bunch with good results from my 260 rem.
