    @Flyblown, do you happen to have a 103gn ELDX projectile still? If so can you please measure the overall length of the pill and also estimate the length of the tip. The JBM calculator suggests these could stabilize in a 1:9 & 1/8th Twist Remington but I need to confirm the tip length.

    Note, please don't measure along the angle of the tip but make sure the measurement is following the straight wall of the projectile.

    Thanks in advance.

    I’ve never had this bullet mate. Only the 90gr ELD-X in 6mm.
    Just...say...the...word

    1.258” total length according to an old thread, which rings a bell from when I measured some
