    162gn eldm with either 2225 powder or 2217 will do the buisness all day
    I have played with a few bergers and barnes but the eldm are not fussy, get em going about 3000fps give or take 50fps and find your accuracy node you'll be away.
    I have a thread on here somewhere called "cant leave well enough alone....." in that thread I try to get the bergers to shoot without a great deal of success but in the end come back to my 162gn eldm load it's just such a great combo in the rem mag, have shot red deer from 150 yards out to near 400 yards all bang flops.
    I have heard of performance issues with the eldx in rem mags both in getting them to shoot and how they perform on game, havent tried them myself so can't comment on it, in my 270wsm the eldx were the buisness but for me in the rem mag you really cant go past the eldm.
    My 2 cents anyway
