[QUOTE="MajorSpittle, post: 1811385, member: 53101"] It is my long range target load. So far just hunting blacktail deer and see no need to use a different round for that. At the low velocity I launch the 208 eldm at I am unsure if a heavy constructed round would even provide any real improvement. This is why I am getting opinions on here. I would think a 208 ELD-M '06 round would do better then any 130gr out of my 270 or most of the cheap 180gr '06 box ammo? I am getting people's input and already plan on trying to develop a less fragile round for elk as the the feedback seems to be that the ELD-M bullets tend to go splat if they hit thick muscle or bone.
