    Have heard from a client they appeared to be more aggressive that the 162 Amax, YMMV

    I have some 162 ELDXs here if you are concerned about over excited expansion, also have plenty of 162 Amaxs if you aren't

    Their terminal performance seem to be the same as 150g Nosler Ballistic Tips,

    They are nice and soft, and work great on light thin skinned deer like Sika/Fallow

    I have not shot any Red deer with them yet.
