I've also noticed velocity will have a dramatic effect on expansion and terminal performance. I've shot the 90 nosler BT up to 3300 fps at 100 yards into critters and the bullet will explode into pieces. Then at 3100 fps the bullet will still be intact with about 50% retention. So bullets will perform differently depending on velocity.

I've now shot more than a few critters with the ELDX bullets and they perform great. The expand quickly and are very explosive. I think they perform very close to the nosler BT bullets. I haven't recovered one yet but they leave devastate game.

Honestly I think the bullet is designed to go through the air with very little drag (which is a good thing). The issue is the bullet will also go through critters with the same concept. I think the thicker and more dense critters will probably do fine with the Bergers because the bullet will have time to expand. The normal hunting bullet seems to expand quicker than the Bergers but they don't slip through the air like Berger bullets do. I think the ELDX bullets are about the best compromise in a good BC and terminal performance.

My bullets performed exactly the opposite. I shot a CWT and the exit hole wasn't the size of a .30 caliber bullet hole. The internal damage was very little. I was not happy when the deer got up and took off running when I approached it. Gave me a chance to work on my pistol skills!!!!!!

I was shooting the 6.5 140 grain VLD hunter out of a 6.5 X 284. Shot a few to many critters where the bullet didn't expand on smaller critters like CWT and yotes. My ELDX, sierra, and nosler bullets don't have the same problem. The ELDX bullets are really close in accuracy to the Berger but the Bergers are just more consistent from bullet to bullet. Terminal performance of the Bergers suffers from my real life testing.

90 grain nosler balistictip is a great bullet for the 6mm caliber. I've probably shot 30-50 big game animals with that bullet and found every one of them and none made if very far.........except one that rolled a long ways down a hill but it doesn't count because it was really dead. Partitions and the Hornady SST bullets have been impressive things to critters over the years too. Personally, I can't stand the terminal performance of berger bullets on smaller animals like CWT/ yotes. I've shot a few to many that didn't die like they should have. You won't see me shoot those bullets at game animals again.

I got a CC hit in NM for a little over $3,000.00 today. Does that mean I have a sheep tag coming?

The down side is you also get to pay about a 3% fee of all charges. So I just applied to NM and it was a $3900 bill. I get to pay a little over $100 in processing fees that I will never get back. All in the name of a .10% chance of getting a sheep tag. I just think the G&F should call people if they have cards that get declined. It's called customer service.......

I own a weatherby like that also. For some reason my shoulder started to hurt again.......weird.

Don't sell primers. Trade them. It is very easy to sell primers but cash can't buy stuff. Trading material is the key in this current market.

Love my BTX. It goes with me on every hunt and I can't imagine hunting without it anymore.

Hows the recoil

I run 1.5# on my trigger. It gives me enough to know I'm touching the trigger before it goes boom.

I have 4# of unopened bullseye powder. $150.00 Chad 480-510-4384.

The garmin mini is awesome. The key is to hook it up to earthmate so you can text from your phone. The Garmin mini is a game changer for guys that spend a bunch of time in the field. Plus you can turn it on and off depending on usage. Super cheap to own and operate.

If you are shooting that caliber and round count I'm guessing you don't need the accuracy that annealing will create. If guys are only going to shoot 300 yards and under there really isn't much reason to anneal brass. Annealing brass really helps with neck tension which is super critical in long range accuracy.
