    Here’s a couple of yearling hinds dropped with 73gr ELD-m projectiles. Needed a Waterman magazine to run them in a Tikka T3.

    378m bang flop double lung, still doing 1940fps and 600 f/lb at that distance.


    260m, I was fighting off sand flys at the time and had a bad shot placement blew up on shoulder blade and punched through a little, it dropped on the spot but lucky I could still see her and gave it another to finish her off.

    What OAL are you running with the 73 ELD-M? I am using them in my X-Bolt at 2.33" but could go to 2.4" in the magazine. The chamber is the limiting factor.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
