    Bloody pleased that the bedding, free float and scope mounting is now sorted and it certainly explains why I have been struggling to get good results.
    I also picked up some 178gn ELDM'S that I'm gonna try as well, I really liked how they performed in my 30/06 and I should be able to get a little more velocity out of them in the wsm even with my 19" barrel
    I run the 178 ELDX in my mates WSM using Hodgdon superprofrmance around 2900 and something from a 20"
