Thread: 162 ELD-M close range performance 284win

I use 168 bergers for the long range dailing load and have some 139 inter locks loaded in some old brass that is of unknown number of reloads that I don't mind loosing in the heat of the moment. Pretty keen not to loose the three dollar a pop fancy new brass in the beech leaves. The 168s are what the rifle is sighted in for and the 139s shoot right on the money at 50mtrs without a point of aim shift. If I'm bush hunting I just load up the interlocks and have a few of the long range load in my day pack. You'll normally have a bit of time up your sleeve if you are watching something far way enough that you have to range it and consult drop charts etc.
And the interlocks are cheap and cheerfull and shoot well without any any fancy long winded load development.
