    7mmRM 162gr ELD-X factory vs reload

    I'm fairly new to reloading, and going to start reloading for my Tikka 7mm rem mag (for hunting). It shoots well with sako ammo, and Nosler 140gr ballistic tips, shooting out to about 400-500m. Best i can get with Hornady precision hunter (162gr ELD-X) factory ammo is about 1.5 MOA

    Given the Hornady projectiles are about all that's available at the moment should I persevere with the ELD-X and try to work up a load? Or am i wasting my time and should try a different projectile?

    Any tips appreciated!
