[QUOTE="B-LOT Banga, post: 1831427, member: 106734"] I have tried the eldx line in my Fierce 300 WSM. Started with the 178, 200 and 212. My 24” barrel shot very well with the 178 gr and best with the 200 gr. The 212 was slower and it’s added BC didn’t make any advantage over the 200 gr. I have not shot any elk just sheep, goats, axis deer and wild cattle. I couldn’t tell any difference between the 178 gr and 200 up to 500 yds except for the clicks, maybe more experienced shooters can chime in. However the 200 gr drifted less at long range even with mild 15-20 mph winds. Try both and see what works well in your particular rifle. I have confidence that both heads will work great and the 200 grain won't be too much. I use the 220 eldx in my fierce 300 RUM as per test targets and it’s a hammer!! [/QUOTE]
