    Hey thanks man.
    I'm really looking forward to some load development with this rig.
    The heavier pills will be cool if I can get them to shoot. The bc on the 75 eldm looks ridiculous and my son is drooling at the thought of smashing some gongs at 300 yds.
    Just the beginning of a long addiction to the hunting game I reckon!

    Very good man. Thanks. I'll do some load development first and just single load em until I know if it likes them. Shame they don't make a 6mm ELD-M pill in the 87-95 range

    Yea thats what i ended up doing first, very accurate, managed to hit a golf ball at 485 and 405 yards on the weekend with it, pretty stoked, they look good on animals to from what timmay's thread shows, very promising!
