Thread: Just the tip......7 rem mag A-Tip load development

If I was @dannyb I would section one of his 7mm Atips just to be sure. The 6.5 Atips might be different internally than the 7mm Atips.

@sneeze the 147gr eld-m in my 6.5prc has been an absolute hammer on the deer I've shot recently (150m-500meters) (7 reds in last 2weeks) , a noticeable impact difference to the 143 eldx and 140gr gold dots. (I'm shooting bonded bulllets in the bush).

Make of it what you will, I'll report back with real world results after next week. My observation is, it doesn't appear to be much different compared to a 150gn eldx (all i had to compare it to but eldx are marketed as a "hunting bullet") jacket thickness looks similar and tip dimensions look similar with the only difference being what the tips are made of. The o.g amax pills had ally tips which by all acounts worked outstandingly.
