ELD-X issues

If you're hand loading you should try the 140 TGK, big frontal cavity that fragments still but a thicker jacket in the rear intended to hold together a little better. I shot a couple animals with them and had good results, I could send you a handful if you want to see how they shoot in your rifle.

Unfortunately I don't reload but I appreciate the offer, TGK sounds like a better round for my uses Thinking an .06 Tikka and Nosler Accubonds or Partitions are in my future.

Any single report of bullet failure brings out other people looking for something to blame other than themselves. And the whole thing snowballs into a reputation that may or may not be deserved. That’s my theory on how these things work.

It’s kind of funny to chart the spread of “gun lore.” All it takes is one authority figure seeking an explanation or excuse for “what went wrong” to condemn whole brands, product lines, etc. for those who respect him.*

You just described the holy drop test.
