Thread: 223 on deer

I couldn't get the 80 ELDM to shoot in my Tikka (even with long mag). The 77 TMK did so I didn't persist with the ELDM. Gimp's and my experience confirms that there is nothing between them when it comes to knocking things over.

The 52 ELDM's shoot lights out in my rifles and is no slug if popped into the right spot on deer. Sometimes I get the odd deer with them when chasing smaller critters.

I'm glad you said that as I've tried twice with the 80 ELDM and struggle to get a group less than 30mm.
I'm all set to try the 77 TMK
