    An eld-x or VLD would be the last projectile I would use on a scrub bull. I'd be using a bonded projectile like a 160 accubond or a Barnes solid copper in 160gr or bigger. Swift A-frames would also be a good choice.

    When I had a 7mm mag I used 168 bergers or 162 a-max past 300yds and had really quick bang flop kills. Inside 300yds I used the 160 accubond with good results.
