The 147 Gr ELD-M has all the right numbers on paper and I have heard a lot of great feedback from people hunting with this bullet so that is my first bullet to try. It didn't disappoint with my first hand loads I tried.

Below are my personal favorite loads for my Browning X-Bolt rifle(s).
The two bullets I have been playing with in my 6mm Creedmoor X-Bolt are the 103 Gr Hornady ELD-X and the 108 ELD-M. I've been really liking the ELD-X and ELD-M bullets from Hornady and have been moving more and more of my rifles over to these bullets. Currently, the 108 ELD-M is my bullet of choice over the two and has had more consistent accuracy on long-range targets.

| 103 Gr. Hornady ELD-X | 41.8 Gr. H4350 | WLR | 2.7930" | 26" | 3,150 | Sub MOA Accuracy. |
| 108 Gr. Hornady ELD-M | 40.4 Gr. H4350 | WLR | 2.8070" | 26" | 3,000 | Sub MOA Accuracy. The 108 ELD-M has been consistently more accurate than the 103 ELD-X. My Favorite load in X-Bolt rifles. |

First time out with my new Hell's Canyon Speed rifle. I picked this rifle up in the employee sale a couple months back. Did one bore sight shot then shot this 3 shot, 100 yard group.
Below are my personal favorite loads for my 300 WSM Hell's Canyon Speed X-Bolt rifle and Dallen's X-Bolt Long Range Laminate rifle.
So far the only bullet I have been playing with in our 300 WSM X-Bolt's is the 200 Gr Hornady ELD-X. I've been really liking the ELD-X bullets from Hornady and have been moving more and more of my rifles over to these bullets.

| Bullet | Powder | Primer | COAL | Barrel Length | Muzzle Velocity | Notes |
| 200 Gr. Hornady ELD-X | 63 Gr. IMR 4350 | WLRM | 2.8655 | 26" | 2,920 | Holy Cow! Amazing Accuracy! |
| 200 Gr. Hornady ELD-X | 63 Gr. IMR 4350 | WLRM | 2.8655 | 23" | 2,830 |
Dallen's new X-Bolt 300 WSM and Hornady 200 Gr ELD-X bullets. 0.376, 0.565, 0.550 inch 100 yard groups. Shot off sand bags in breezy conditions. I'm amazed! I just used Hornady's recommended COAL and three different powder charges of IMR 4350. L-R shooting at second row of targets - 59 Gr then adjusted scope up and to right and let rifle cool while I shot another rifle, then 61 Gr and last 63 Gr shot right after the 61 Gr group with no cool down in between. Holy Crap! 200 ELD-X bullets rock!!!
