[QUOTE="AD5GB, post: 1317348, member: 98380"] I've not used the ELD-X in the 270 yet. Mine's a Rem 700 with a 27" Krieger tube and I've used the Hornady 140 BTSP Interlock almost exclusively in it for like, forever. Every time I switched to something else I was very disappointed with terminal performance compared to it. It's dropped Wisconsin whitetail at all ranges - the longest being about 485 yards - pretty swiftly. The other pills I've used have done the job, just not with the DRT performance of the Interlock. The longer barrel loves the slower powders though so my loads may not do the same for you but for years I loaded IMR7828. 58gr gives me about 3015fps into a 1/2" group - no pressure signs whatsoever. Recently I've been loading 60gr of IMR7977 with the same bullet at 3050fps, also into a sub 1/2" group. It's likely this rifle will never see another load in my lifetime, though the ELD-X is tempting. I do use the 200s and the 212s in my 300 Winnie. [/QUOTE]
