I’m sure they make a 7mm 150g ELD-M

Saw a packet somewhere


And they make 7mm 150g Nosler Ballistic Tips

Eldx and correct on the bt but $$$ and more supply

I might be wrong on the 7mm 150g eld-m

Thought I saw them somewhere, maybe Taupo hunting n fishing

Just checked.
The only eld in 150 is the x.
I have been loading g them in my son's 7mmo8 rifle and they kill like the hammer of god.
Been using them since they came out.

I run the 162 eld-m with 41.2gr of 2208 behind it in a 16.5inch 7mm 08 and have had great results. 2452fps so not fast as you’d expect with the short barrel, but very accurate and been deadly on mostly reds from 10yards to 450yards so far. Had very low es and sd but a change in primer has made it not quite as consistent so will have a bit more of a play around when get the time.

Forgot to say, it is a tikka and run them at mag length in a M+ mag.

Out of curiosity. Did you have to swop out the bolt stop to, with the m+ mag?

No, no need to.

This M+ mag sounds interesting. Where did you find one? or is it the small magnum one. Never heard of it. What's your COL at mag Length with the M+? I'm using 3006 mag with the bolt stop removed. Feed great but action would be nice.

Short action not action at home lol

Solved, Standard extended magazine +1

Now how about 180 ELD-M's out of a 1-8" 7mm-08...?
