    I blooded the 260Imp a couple of days ago. The 143gr ELD-X sure are the bizzo, rapid expansion at 179m. Quarter on shot on a spiker took out 2 ribs on way in, a vertebrae and finished up with the boat-tail poking out a wee hole. No lead core to be found, could well have come out with the gutting. Not a lot of meat damage either despite the amount of hydraulic shock that would have occurred. This backs up what @BRADS has found with their field performance.
