    Why not consider dual loads, say 150g soft point for close up say out to 200 yards then 145 eldx for anything further out, keep the soft points loaded when stalking, easy to top load an eldx if you come out on a clearing requiring a longer shot, just zero for the eldx and check the difference between them and the soft points, I'd be supprised if there was enough in it to bother adjusting out to 200 yards. @stug put me on to this idea and I'm certainly gonna give it a go
