Very respectable Buck there, Buckmastr!!
But an aside....if that is what you recovered
from a 450 yard shot, what would that ELD-X
look like if the shot was 150 yards? Dave.

Thanks
The previous two animals I’ve shot with this gun I had full pass through with no bullet recovery. Mule buck at 325 through the back of the lungs. A 400 yard antelope through the shoulders.

The bullet above entered high neck and ended up back of the far shoulder.

Not very consistent bullet performance but adequate on deer sized game imo.

x 2

The ELDx, as splashy as they are, penetrate sufficiently deep for medium sized game

Not quite as good as the 100gr PSP but it’ll do for gophers

While that may be true, maybe I will just stick with the 140 AB's, they have been good to me. This one was from a 430 yard goat;

^^^That’s ideal.
