[QUOTE="19 Badger, post: 1703503, member: 107918"] Tried some Hornady 147 grain Eld-m's in my Tikka Superlite with some H4350 this morning and I was shocked how easily I was able to obtain consistant sub .5 moa results. I know they are only 3 shot groups and @ 100 yards but I will load up a few more and take them out to about 500+ and see if my groups hold together. Was having some lighting issues with my chronograph, so I missed some velocity readings. I will be happy if I can print some more .2's ad 3's in the 2675-2725 fps range. I am used to carrying a much heavier Weatherby Mk V for deer/antelope. It may stay at home this year and carry this lightweight gem. I've never tried the Eld line of bullet on game yet, hearing good and bad results. I also tried the 140 eld-m's and are keeping .5 moa @ 600, but I have a wondering eye and just had to try the heavier 147's. Ive always been a Nosler guy but love how these Hornady's shoot.
