I shoot them in my 260 for coyotes. I hit one at 630 yards (my longest kill shot yet). There was no visible exit and until I skinned him, I didn't know where I'd even hit him at until I skinned him. He was bedded down and looking back at me when I shot him. The bullet hit just behind his shoulder and came out just beside his asshole. The entry didn't look bad, but his whole leg and rump was hamburger. I was surprised to find that the bullet did exit, at least there was a thumbnail sized hole in the hide, but no blood at all left the carcass. I've shot several coyotes ranging in weight from 20-50 lbs with the 123 grain ELD-M and it has killed every one that I've hit very quickly. Usually I have an exit about the size of a golf ball and lots of blood. Don't know if this helps you at all, but here's my experience with the bullet. Shoot straight and have fun bud.Originally Posted by GunGuy85
Anyone have any experience using the Hornady 123 gr ELD M for hunting? Hornady doesn’t make a lower weight ELD X in 6.5. This is for a Grendel. Have read multiple places that the 123 is basically an AMAX and this is the only weight Hornady did this with. Picture for attention.
