[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1437006, member: 10291"] Tried the Hornady 143 ELD-X. Accuracy, velocity, and ES is pretty close to the Berger 140 HVLD’s in my Savage LRH(24” bbl). I would note that the Hornady(seated .040”OL) requires more seating pressure then the Bergers(.075”OL) and leaves a very slight ring/depression from the seater plug between the ogive and bullet tip indicating a softer jacket in the bullet nose area compared to the HVLD. This is consistent with testing this bullet my 6.5CM. Comparison with my standard Berger load. Both groups(with cold bore) shot with the same scope setting/same day and conditions at 200 yards.
