180 ELDM Terminal Performance.

[Huntnful]

Amazing deer, those ELDMs sure work well. Any Experience with Berger 180 hybrids?

Yes. They perform super similar. The ELDM just has a higher BC, and I believe the tip helps with faster expansion, especially at lower impact velocities. I can't prove that though, just a theory.

Nice Buck dude! How was the wound channel compared to 225's?

I don't think you could tell difference honestly. 225 might actually open up a little bit faster

Very nice mulie!

Thank you!

Killed a big bodied buck with the 180 ELDM. Been super happy with the performance of this bullet so far.

Better BC than most 30 cal bullets, devastating wound channels and lower recoil than the big 30's.

Rifle is a 7-300 Norma Mag Improved built by @Barehandlineman11 at High Voltage Armory. Really pleased with this cartridge/bullet combo.
