[QUOTE="catorres1, post: 1169040, member: 80699"] Thanks for the clarification. To me, I much prefer the way the AB looks to either the ELDX or the Amax, at least in this test. I have not shot any of them on actual game, so maybe results may vary, I don't know. But I just bought 2 boxes of the ELDX's, so I hope this water test is not representative, because that's not really what I wanted to see. The ballistic gellatin tests looked a lot better, but marketing is involved here, so who knows. I know Hornady said they did not bond the jackets like their interbonds due to accuracy demands, but I think they should have, and let the ELDM's go without bonding. Again, though, will be hoping to see some in field results on game. I really am hoping it does better than the above pictures, as the 200 grainers I have on hand seem otherwise just what I was looking for, and I'd hate to waste all the load development time and money and have to move on to something else.
