Hornady ELD 308 bullets

[Tusker6N]

Anyone have any experience with this bullet yet?

I picked up a box of 208gr ELD to try in my 300WM and 308 win.
Everything I've found about reloading says to use the same data as the Amax rd when working up a load.

No experience with that bullet.Just loaded 100 Hornady Interlock 30 cal.150 grain SP's.Hope to try them on a deer next week.

Nope can't find any.Wanted some of the 178's for my 300WSM but can't find any.Kinda stupid to me for Hornady to release a so called great product and not have any to sale.

Creating a market before producing them, the old you can't have them until
we see a big need and then they produce them....


Good day to ya, REMMY.... you going to the woods??

Have you contacted Hornady about loading info?
or checked their web sit on reloading??
nothing like getting info from the horses mouth.

 

[Tusker6N]

Yes, there is nothing but use the Amax data

Some where in the middle would be a good place to start.
That's a long bullet for a 308, hope your twist is fast enough. 1 in 10 or 1 in 9 . Most 308wins are 1 in 12.
Good Luck
