    Hornady Precision Hunter 243Win 90gr ELD-X - COAL please ?

    Hi guys,

    has anyone got the above factory ammo at home and could measure the overall length, please?
    Mate got a new Tikka .243 and the COAL would provide a good starting point for me to get some handloads going.


    Cheers,
    JaSa

    I reload with the eld-x but don't have the factory ammo.
    If it's of any use, touching the lands in my rifle was exactly the same OAL as the Hornady GMX 80gr, and slightly longer (0.03 inches) than the Hornady 87gr SP and the Sierra 100gr Prohunter.
