[QUOTE="can1010, post: 2603770, member: 43193"] while shooting water jugs is ok for a general comparison between bullets it is not the whole story. Your BTSP are a general purpose bullet with a thicker jacket or harder lead or even both designed for close to moderate ranges, the ELDX is a long range bullet designed to work at longer ranges when velocity slows down and having softer lead and jacket to work properly at extended range. your results are what i would expect at the ranges and velocities you used, try again at longer distances past 200 yds if possible and your results will be totally different. try 300 or farther with the ELDX and they will hold together much better and usually have increased penetration.
