Picked up 300 of the 103 Xs from midway for a new 22" spotter in 6 Creed. Anyone shoot any hogs or deer with this bullet yet? Wondering how it will do at around 2950. On paper it looks similar to my 25-06 115 Bergers, wonder if they kill the same.

Coworker shoots it in a 6mm Remington. Only one deer since he started shooting it but it was dead right there heart and lung shot. Complete pass through as you would expect from a heart and lung shot. 2 finger exit.

ELD-X has done great for me, and for people I have loaded for. I can't speak to 6mm though. I would not bet against it, if you put the bullet where it goes.

Midway had blems for .17ea so hard to go wrong. If they shoot as well as the 108s we will be in business.

How fast are they running? I had good luck with the 108s with 41.5 of H4350 never pushed higher. I think max on the 103s is over 42gr.
