Hornady ELD-X Official Thread

[Jud96]

I would like to start this thread so members can post any new information or experiences with the new Hornady ELD-X bullets as they become available and hit the market. Any new bullet weights and/or information regarding BC and general discussion on these bullets can also be posted here. I think an organized and on topic thread for this new bullet will be both informative and entertaining. Thanks! gun)

Just back ordered 100 .308 220gr. This might be the answer for my 2016 moose hunt. I've been toying with several high bc 220gr and up match Bullets but wasn't sure how they would be for moose. I know there's a lot of controversy over using match bullets for hunting and I've never shot a moose with the 300RUM in any configuration so hopefully this will be the ideal combination.

Where did you order them from? And how much were they? Thanks

I don't see anywhere that has them for sale....hopefully they can actually get them out and available unlike the accubond lr.

You gotta love new options/choices!

I wish they would publish dimensional specs, like Berger does, on them.

I found them at Midway USA for $40.99 plus shipping for 100 count box. Expected in stock date is 11/28/15.

I am going to try some of the 212 gr as well as the Berger 215's to see what shoots best out of my new rig. I got all winter long to play around with load development so I got time to wait before they hit the shelves. Still deciding on what powder to start with as well.
