I have 3 boxes to try in my 6.5saum, just haven't gotten around to loading them up yet. Hoping they are a little more jump tolerant and mag length friendly than the vld's.
Are you going to pull those pistols, or whistle Dixie?

I spoke with Alan Rovig at McWhorter Rifles who built my 6.5 Weatherby. He said they are having very good results with the Elite hunters. 10-30,000th off.
Accuracy and effectiveness on game are the same as the VLDH.

These bullets are awesome. I just used them in place of the 140 hunting VLD's and they managed to improve an already tight group. I cannot speak to there terminal ballistics, but I have no reason to assume they would not be more than adequate.
