    ELD-X - 308 - Bush Hunting

    Hi Team, I've been using 178gr Hornady ELD-X in my 308 since this years roar with mixed results. I'm hunting thick bush so 20-50m max shots. Now you could say its not the bullet but my shooting/rifle zero, and you could be right...I am fairly new to this but I've had about 3 animals get away from me that I couldn't find and I could swear the shot placement was mint (no blood trail).

    Anyone else had this issue?

    So question - What ammunition are you guys using for close bush hunting in 308 Win?
