    I’m using eldm in a 22/250ai, 6.5 Grendel and two 6.5/06ai rifles. Kill deer from 20m to 750m. Never had any issues with them. The 147’s usually lung shots are DRT from my 06/ai’s even at 600m no tracking needed. 22/250ai out to 250m dropped two hinds on the spot couple nights back. Now in contrast the Berger hunting bullets I used to use and my brother still uses all give a nice exit hole and make deer easy to track with the blood trail. They all move off the spot they were shot with lung shots, all are dead but I prefer not to track animals if that is an option.
