Here is the latest one shot with it. Good sized hill country deer. Shot slightly quartering to through the shoulder found the bullet under the skin about where a liver shot would be. 70yd shot. Again zero blood trail. 50 yd run. As you can see the bullet folds over itself without a lot of diameter expansion. That is why they leave the same entrance and exit hole. I have a couple of boxes for sale for all of you that love them.

143 eldx 6.5 not pleased
Tried to read through this thread as I started using the eld-x in my 6.5 and .300wm this year. Reason I started using them is I can shoot 1/2 moa outta both guns with them. Haven’t been able to take my 6.5 out at all this year so don’t much to say about that. But took my .300 elk hunting earlier this year. 190 yds two shots elk went 5 yards. One passed through one didn’t. First shot lungs and destroyed them. Second shot liver and destroyed that. No tracking job needed. That’s my personal experience. But not sure what to think about the eld-x overall after reading this thread.

Bought a 6.5 Creedmore 2 months ago and sighted in with the 143 GR ELDX. Shot a buck at 80-90 yds through the brush Friday and he went 30 yds. Entrance was tiny and the exit was a bloody mess. When I went to track the deer I didn’t look at the blood trail. All I found was a white belly 30 yds from where he stood. So far from my experience I like it!
