Excuse me if I’ve already posted this but a 178 ELDX smacks the living poo out of a steel plate down range.

Those are what my Sig Cross prefers, and seem to always be on sale at my LGS for under $30 a box. Getting MV of a little over 2450fps with its 16” barrel and Banish 46 can, and comps out to a little over 1600fps / 1000ft-lbs at 600 yards. Both conveniently are the general minimums for velocity for ELDX bullets, and energy for medium sized game (my 7PRC does my big game work unless on Kodiak, then its 338). So is nice to know my general comfortable hunting range is within the rifle / cartridge / bullet’s effective range.
