Jesus. If you're lecturing me then you'll have an apoplexy if you ever watch back ridge butcher. I used to be a contract hunter this isn't my first rodeo. Of course unlike you I'm not perfect and...

Been using the 140, 180 and 208 they all kill really well as long as you don’t hit the scapula.

Ran them for years in a 18inch 7mm08 at 2530fps. Shot fallow and goats from 10 meters out to 600meters with them.

the eldm 108 gr at 3000fps in my 243 work well on deer. goats are a bit thin side on and while they die the bullet is half way through before starting to open up. for goats i've found something...

They just plain kill. I’ve shot deer at 700m bang flop. With 147 eldm, used 75g I think it was in a 22/250AI and both 120g and 123g in Grendel and they just plain work. Must say the 147’s at high...

Running them exclusively in a few different 7mm chamberings, always emphatic killers on deer. Ran them at 2500fps in a 7mm08 and dropped numerous large deer at 300-400 yards.

I was running the 162 ELDM in 7mm08 at around 2520 fps. Very happy with performance on reds from bush ranges out to 430m -ish from memory. Good BC is a bonus too. Now using the 75s in 223.

Almost everyone I've talked with that has actually hunted with ELDMs, rates them as killers. I had great results with the 75s in my 223AI and am looking at using the 108s in my 6CM

I use the eldm factory loads in .223 and .308 and rate so you should have no issues if your getting good groups

I have found when it comes to using them for hunting purposes there are two camps with opposing views: 1) those that repeatedly state that you shouldnt use match bullets for hunting. 2) those...

Re Fiochi primers. During the " great shortage" these became a supply for many in our rifle club. I reloaded a bunch for a guy. Not one FTF, mind you they got a fair smack from his Swing action....
