7prc ELD-X Hornady vs Federal?

[Fever Buck]

Picked up another rifle in 7PRC, this time a browning x-bolt 2 spr. Shot it today with the remaining hornady 180 ELD-M, and Nosler 175 ABLR’s plus the Federal 175 ELD-X. Hornady averaged 2701 fps and shot about a 1.5 mos group for 8 shots (all I had left) Nosler averaged 2738 fps and just like the other rifle shot terrible, 2.5-3 moa group and the federal was 2780 fps and shot a 1.4 moa 10 shot group which I’m quite ok with.

What length barrel? Seems very slow for federal.

I'm shooting a browning speed sr with 6inch can shooting the 160 cx bullets averaging 2772 groups really good my buddy shoots a Remington 700 lr with 22" barrel and a 6 in can he's using hornady eldx has about a 100 rounds thru it and his velocity ranges anywhere from 2660-2796 depending on the lot number I'm going to have to tell him to try federal to see if it gets more consistent

My Christensen FFT 7 PRC with is all over the place with Hornady ELD-X. With Federal its MOA. With some reload testing with 175 Bergers, 175 ELD-X and Nosler 160 Accubonds it does better than MOA.
