[QUOTE="nmbarta, post: 1517563, member: 78438"] I'd love to see a polymer tipped berger. I've had some problems with bergers not expanding. There is no doubt that bergers are more consistent, especially from lot to lot. If I owned a rifle that was target specific, I'd shoot bergers, but I don't. I've found lot consistency to be pretty decent with the eld-x line, but have some pretty wild swings in bto measurements from lot to lot. That said, I just make sure that my bto stays the same and I've not had any problems. Terminal performance with the eld-x has been nothing short of excellent in my experience. Shots ranging from 120-920 yards with 175 and shots from 80-890 yards with the 162. I suppose we've taken around 40 critters with the eld-x. It's been 100% reliable so far. I don't do much for load development once I get them to 1/2 moa with low sd's, but do have a 6.5x284 that will shoot them in the .3's, so I think they are capable of better, I'm just not. [/QUOTE]
