Had to rezero after my windage slipped going into the last stage of a local PRS match.

1x fired Starline

Adjusted turrets and sent another 10 with 1x Starline. Elevation seems a bit high as I think I was starting to hold on the hole instead of the dot. The outside shots were the last 4.

I really like those 150 Eldx’ in 7mm08.

How fast are you pushing them with N550?

I’ve backed them off a bit from where I had them. These are going 2675 from the 1x brass. The virgin is going 2635.

With a little more N550 or a decent amount of Staball 6.5, I can push them north of 2700 but I’m enjoying no bolt lift and no marks on the brass.

I used to shoot the 162 Eld-m a lot but the 150s shoot well and line up almost perfect with quickdrop inside of 600.

This all from a 19” chopped Tikka barrel.

I shot about 300 of those of 150 Eldx with SB 6.5, Big Game, and H4350.

SB 6.5 gave the speed, touch over 2800 in a 22” barrel.

H4350 gave really consistent groups at 2725fps and no random bolt lift like SB would give.

I’m currently on a 162 eldm kick. I’ll shoot the rest of these at steel then switch back over to 150’s w/H4350
 
Ecstatic to see my tikka 223 put out a group like this with thermal
