    I recently developed a good accurate load with 130gn ELD-M in my 6.5*55. Now I am curious to know if others have used these on game? If so; how did they perform?

    The purpose built Lehigh, Cutting Edge, etc subsonic mono projectiles are the way forward The 30 cals are very quiet, the 452 are a bit louder but three times more devastating
