[QUOTE="Don Titus, post: 1151886, member: 61851"] I have limited experience (2-5shot groups at 100 Yds) with the 200 gr. LRX in my 300 WIn Mag using H4831sc as follows: 71 gr. .70" @ avg. 2718fps. My groups with 200 gr. ELD-X were: 71gr. .60"@ 100 YDS @ 2710; .90" @ 200 YDS 72gr. .50" @ 100 @ 2745; .75" @ 200 The superior BC of the ELD-X seems to make a positive difference. "Non-scientific" of course, but I'm going to keep working on an ideal load for the ELD-X and will try to get velocity up to the low to mid 2800's with H4831sc once I find the best one (accuracy and velocity) without pressure signs, then I will do the same with RL22 just for kicks (maybe get another 50 fps), but in my rifle, I have doubts as to whether the accuracy will be as good.
