[QUOTE="SupressYourself, post: 136242, member: 340"] I just started working up the 143 ELDX for my Desert Tech. Looks like ~41.9 gr of H4350 is going to be the sweet spot at about 2825 fps (26in bbl). [ATTACH=CONFIG]17904._xfImport[/ATTACH] I started them at about .03 off at 2.197 (to ogive). I’ll run another batch at various seating depths to fine tune it. I realize this probably doesn’t help you much since you’re using a different powder, but I’ll post my stats for reference: Bullet: Hornaday 143 ELDX Case: Lapua Primer CCI 450 Powder: 41.9 grains, H4350 OAL (to Ogive): 2.197 Barrel: 26in Benchmark 1-8 Velocity: ~2825fps (Magnetospeed) -- Below is my current secret sauce. I’m moving to the Eldx because while the Scenar drives tacks, it doesn’t kill very well. Bullet: Lapua 139 Scenar Case: Lapua Primer CCI 450 Powder: 42.6 grains, H4350 OAL (to Ogive): 2.220 Barrel: 26in Benchmark 1-8 Velocity: ~2866fps (Magnetospeed) [/QUOTE]
