Any bad experiences with 175 gr Berger Elite Hunters on Elk

Wow! What are the chances? Two failures on the same bull elk. He apparently just stood there and took it? Then you happened to have an ELDX in your pocket that you dispatched him with? Is carrying around a back-up load a thing? I don't know if you are cursed or blessed.

Exactly

Shot 3 with that bullet....only one took a step and it was because he was facing downhill on a 35 degree slope

I have shot 2 bulls with that bullet out of my 7LRM. 1st one was at 220 and the second at 425. Both only went 20 yards max and tipped over and went to sleep. By far the best bullet out of that gun............JR
