[QUOTE="Hespco, post: 1750566, member: 109476"] In my 6.5's the ELDX is a very accurate disaster. Recovered bullets in the dirt bank behind my 100yd target. Barnes 'TSX still weigh what they weigh before shooting. . Noslerr partition still intact from the partition back. Nosler AB retained more weight than the partition. ElDX , bits & pieces. Yes dirt is hard on a bullet but so are elk bones. A deer I shot a week or so back with the Hornady bullet had massive amounts of blood shot meat in the right front shoulder & the shoulder it self was not hit but a rib right by it was. Looked like an explosion went off. Blood shot meat from the base of the neck to 8" back on the ribs from the shoulder. Lost 80% of that front shoulder. It did kill the deer. My observation is that this bullet should only be used on rib cage shots. Understand the ELDX is just a C&C bullet with a tricky name. Nothing magic about this bullet. Just the magic of a tricky name selling something.. [/QUOTE]
