It’s a good choice. I’ve found/seen/heard that the 80 ELDX can be a picky little bastard both in hand loads and factory loads. I’ve had two lots from hornady shoot 1MOA or slightly better and I’ve had another lot recently shoot 1.5MOA or slightly worse. Just want to be transparent there.

Never had any accuracy issues with 77 TMK or 88 ELDM yet. Both are with much less use than 80 ELDX though.


Same here. I’ve tried it on paper through several different barrels/223 chamberings and the juice was not worth the squeeze for me
