[QUOTE="Idaho Lefty, post: 2505984, member: 104437"] The 6.5 cal., ELD-M's have, a .023 thick Jacket at, the "Shank" ( quite, Thin ! ) and are NOT recommended for, Big Game, by Hornady. The ELD-X's have a .037 thick Jacket at, the "Shank" ( much thicker and Tougher ! ) and ARE, the Recommended Big Game Bullet, by Horn. Eld-M are OK at,.. the Longer Distance's when the Bullet's Velocity, has Time to, slow down. ( Yes, "some" Hunter's, like them ). ELD-M's are, "Rough" Destructive, leaving larger Holes, W/ Blood Shot Meat at, the closer Ranges, due to having a THIN Jacket and the Explosiveness at,.. HIGH Velocity ! Probably do GREAT with, a "Boiler Room", Hit ! Many Match Target shooter's are Complaining about, "Blow Up's" using the "M's", in the Air,.. before, hitting their Target. My advice would be, to TEST, any/ all, Bullets for, Yourself ! I will use, the ELD-X's, in my 6.5 for Deer, Antelope and Elk at, "Reasonable" Ranges as,.. I have seen, First Hand, what they "Do" on Muley's and like, the Performance ( ALL "Pass Thru's" or, just under, the Far side, Hide ). [/QUOTE]
