Thread: 6mm Creedmoor and 108gr ELD-M performance

Hey thanks for an interesting post.

Would you care to comment on the ELD-M's weight retention across the range - i.e. do they have to have a certain Sectional Density (if this is the right metric) to retain some core in the jacket. I ask because I'm trying to decide on a projectile for my 308 for Reds and Tahr, and as its going to (maybe) reach further than some of my previous rifles I feel projectile performance becomes more critical . . . . I'd like to use a jacket as light as the M's but have reservations for their use on closer shots. My thinking is if I select the right bullet weight (sectional density) I might improve my chances of getting consistent performance.

PS - have also studied your bullet sectioning post - very informative
