    200gr ELD-X for 30-06

    Not have anything else better to do, I thought I would see if I can work up a good load using Hornadys 200gr ELD-X in my trusty old Mauser 98, 30-06.

    I realise that there are better pills more suited for the 30-06, but as I happen to have a box of 200gr projectiles, some spare brass and a number of ADI powders I thought I'd see if I could stretch the legs my old rifle.

    Mauser 98, 1:10 twist, 22" barrel.

    Anyone out there used the 200gr ELD-X in a 30-06? If so, then what worked?

    Cheers.
