Most guys stocked up like crazy during the last break in the AMAX drought (including myself). I'd say a few are waiting to burn through their stock before they try the new non-melty tips

Any word on how these are going for people?
I'm considering changing down slightly from the 180 bergers as I feel I'm not getting enough speed for them to perform.
Either that or I try the nosler 175

Got mates using the 'm' with good results on deer. Loaded same as amax and seated same in comparator with next to no identifiable changes in group or speed.Quote:

CorrectQuote:

I'm behind the times also as I haven't used hornady projectiles much apart from the 75 amax.Quote:

I was never keen on them as I got my 7/300wsm throated for the 180 berger and the barrel has a 8" twist.

Picked up my new scope today at Hamills and got talking about the ELD-X and Noslar LR, seems that some people have trouble getting the Noslar LR to shoot in there rifles whereas the Hornady ELD-X and M seem to be easier to get to shoot well plus they are cheaper than the Noslar's.
Plenty of ELD-X are advertised on Trade Me.
That sounds like you should definitely try the 175 ELD then :DQuote:
