[QUOTE="JIsbell40, post: 1802627, member: 99153"] I’ve down loaded ELDm and ELDx bullets to simulate 800 yard hits. The M gets faster expansion than the X. The X penetrates better up close. The X must have a thicker jacket. As far as I’m concerned the M is just an AMAX with a new tip. And the AMAX is SOFT.... expands to 1700 fps on small does just fine.... I’ve killed anywhere from 75-100 deer with the 162 eld m doing crop management and it opens up great at lower impacts. The 162eldx, not so much. Similar results with the big 30s out of my 30” 300wby. The M is a more violent expander. [/QUOTE]
