[QUOTE="JIsbell40, post: 1809541, member: 99153"] Ill bite. I briefly shot 208 eldm in my 30” 300wby ALOT faster than anything posted in this thread thus far. Rl26 3320FPS. The eldm have zero chance of exiting on harder quartering shots in 100 pound does army impacts above 2800 FPS. Doing crop management with a nuisance permit In a one week period I killed 26 does with that load. I got a total of 5 exit holes. Some broad side but most quartering. I switched to 215 Bergers and I get a pass through on these does all the time. Usually on big bucks as well. The ELDm is very very very soft. Too soft for my 300wby and my 7wsm. When I’m shooting trophy deer, I want an exit. Deer bleed on the ground when there’s an exit. Not so much when there’s only an entrance. I don’t feel like beating around in the dark looking for a deer I know I’ve killed but can’t find because it ran 150 yards down a mtn and didn’t bleed a drop. [/QUOTE]
