[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1560856, member: 33159"] In 2017, I killed a nice NM 5x5 bull with the 200 gr ELDX in my 300 WSM. Shot was only 100-105 yards. Placement was mid body along the front edge of the front leg. He dropped like he was hit by lightning!! No tracking needed!! Exit wound was about 1.5 “ About 3 weeks ago, I killed a cull buck (whitetail) on a friend South Texas ranch with the same rifle/load. Shot placement was the same as my elk and distance was about 150 yards. Same result. He dropped right where he was standing....game over. Exit wound was about an inch. Muzzle velocity of this load is 2952 fps. I’ve been very pleased with the results. That being said, I have changed to Hammer Bullets in all of my rifles for hunting. Super accurate and devastating performance from an all copper bullet. I have too many ELDX, Accubonds, Partitions, BT’s that I need to use and already loaded up. But, if it’s a big time hunt, I only use the Hammer Bullets now. [/QUOTE]
