    But I am not interested in hunting with them... has any one had experience with reloading them... powders, speeds, accuracy... to compare with my experience?

    Only in 135gr, search for it in here somewhere.
    Haven't done any new testing as the new batch of AR2209 suddenly was 100fps faster compared to the batch I started the load on. Have purchased enough powder now for 2 years and mixed it all up to even it out but back to the drawing board for the new load for the 135gr A-Tip and the existing load for the 143gr ELD-X - which sucks

    Yes I am keen to try the 135 gn A tips soon... what speeds are you getting?

    I have been using the 143 gn ELD-X with RL26 quite successfully...2850 fps.
