Hi all,
I'm hoping someone on here may be able to shed some light on a new phenomenon im currently experiencing. I have a Tikka Viel Wideland in .300 winmag in an MDT LSS chassis that I'm currently getting to know, trying different factory ammo to find what it likes, so far to no avail. The most recent box I tested were Hornadys famed ELD X rounds (200gr) which I've read and been told are the ducks nuts. At 100m I was less than impressed, with wide open groups from prone, chasing around the paper with very little consistency, super disappointing. I thought I would then give them a go at further out, just out of curiosity as I had them, and at 350m and then 400m I hit a small steel plate measuring 6 inches by 3 inches with my first 2 rounds at each distance, with the 2 rounds 1 inch apart. Subsequently I shot 5 or 6 more rounds at similar distances with similar excellent accuracy. So now from a position of not thinking the ELDs were for me I'm confused AF.
Has anyone else ever experienced this kind of thing?
