[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 2664536, member: 10"] In my testing, the eldm opens up a bit quicker then the eldx and will shed a bit more weight terminally but for deer size game thats often a good thing. One thing many do not realize is that with Berger bullets, the Match versions have heavier jackets then the Hunting version. For me loading them in my Allen Magnum and Allen Xpress or Stalker wildcats, at the velocity ranges these are working at, the Match version of the Bergers is all i use as the Hunting version expand to aggressively. All that said, do a little pre hunt Testing and see what they do and then match the bullets to the game being hunted and the rifle/chambering being used. For deer, match bullets often are a fine choice. If you need 4 feet of penetration, common sense should tell you there are better options out there. Nice buck by the way and obviously good shooting!!
