[QUOTE="Lemjohn, post: 1366653, member: 103647"] Hey all, first post on here, but lots of reading and appreciate the shared knowledge. I have been using the eld-x in my 270 for a few hundred rounds now and have found AR2209 (H4350) loaded to 2950 fps to give the best ES and most consistent results across conditions. Accuracy is consistent around 1/2moa at 0.020" and again at 0.045" off the lands with the odd group doing 1/4moa. This is primarily a hunting rifle but am having a lot of fun with this load shooting steel out beyond 600 yards. With this round the limiting factor is my wind reading ability. I wont put my actual load as my rifle tends to take more than most to reach expected velocities and may be a bit dicey in some rifles. However I have no pressure signs in norma brass. Primer pockets are still tight after multiple reloadings. One thing I have found is the eld leaves a significant amount of copper in the barrel...but hey this is a hunting tool... [/QUOTE]
