[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1131664, member: 69478"] Sorry, but back to bearing surface for just a quick question. I noticed the 212gr ELD-X has a slightly shorter (.004) bearing surface than its 200gr counterpart, does this mean I can get the same velocity with the heavier bullet compared to the 200? I would also like to say that I was hoping to see a 6mm and a .270cal bullet option. Preferable two .243cal bullets like a 90-95gr for factory twists and a 105-108gr for tight twists. Since most .270s have a ten twist, whatever the heaviest bullet that will stabilize in a 1:10, like a 150 or 155, would be nice in my .270 Win and the new Sherman cartridges as well as the WSM and Weatherby .270s. Like most bullet lines, I'm sure we will see some additions and changes over the course of the ELD-X. I would like to say thanks for the great conversation from all, I can't wait until we can get these in our hands and start reporting data and field experience. Thanks again you all! [/QUOTE]
