My local sportsmans has the 178eldx, 200&212eldx,and 208 eldm bullets in stock in 30 cal....you can do site to store free shipping if you have a local store with none in stock

Midway has the 220 ELD-x in stock

 

[RH300UM]

Also is the BC higher on the 212 then on the 220? .325 vs .312

 

[7mmShooter]

220gr is designed more towards mag fed constrictions, the 212gr is not

 

[RH300UM]

Ordered 5 boxes 220 from Midway and 5 boxes of 212's from sportsmans warehouse.
Got to love those gift cards from Christmas. And the people who give them to me
Just need the 7mm 175's and I will have what I need to test these pills out!!

My rigs don't have mag length restrictions as a internal mag. I have Seekins mags and bottom metal. I will have plenty of room to play with for testing.

Got 10 boxes from midway 2 days ago. Out of all the new ELD-X offerings this one is the one that has the most potential for me from the Berger avenue.

I think I might give the 212 ELD X a shot in my Mosin Nagant. Ran some numbers thru shooter. It should be a good deer load out to 1000. Will have about 1400 fps at 1000. That should be enough speed for adequate expansion. It's one of my most accurate and reliable guns. Almost boring to shoot at 750. Almost. Never get tired of watching that steel bang.

Getting ready to anneal all of my brass before starting load work in my 6.5-284. Got 300 143 's in
