    From what I can gather they're a game king with a pointy plastic tip. Have used the game kings before and they went really good on game just suffered a bit in the bc department compared to some.
    Still might have a go at working up a 150 lrab load but will have to get really really bored before I do that.

    2595fps out of my 20” sako. The sako ammo in .308 is pretty slow, but the accuracy near and far is very good.

    From what I can tell it is harder. Looking at sectioned pills it is thicker than the gameking and even the eldx. Keen to see how the LRABs go if you that way Ryan @MSL mine is 20" so expecting about the same.

    Shot some half hearted groups starting at 58gr as I searched for pressure and finally settled on 60.3gr steaming along at 3182fps. Shoots half moa and better and confirmed out to 510yds with a first round hit on the 10" gong just now, not bad for a super light rifle with a whippy barrel and no silly stuff screwed on the end of it. Pretty happy with that

    Nice man. Perfect alpine rifle right there. Recoil must be fairly snappy with the 140s shifting along that quick in a rifle that light.
