    168gr ELD-M for .308







    Well it looks like my rifle is liking these 168gr ELD-M bullets! Couple decent groups here but which one should I go with?

    I'd pick the best two and go between them. That'll be the sweet spot.

    The beauty of it is I can always order more of these from Wes and continue to play around with the load! And yes 44.1 is one that I want to tweak a little. Turn 3 holes touching into one!

    Have you measured that group? Just curious as to your starting point so will know how much more improved it gets as you tweak it.
