Has anybody tried the new Hornady ELD bullets on game.
I have not but have read several article written by those who have..I am a bit worried the are going to be on the soft side from what I read saying they retain 50-60%....was planning on trying them next season on pronghorn and mule deer with lower velocity calibers..3100fps or less..

Was another story I read in GUNS AND AMMO hunting in Texas for Aoudad similar performance..

From the looks of those gelatin tests, I would NOT expect to shoot a moose or elk at 100yards in the ribs and expect anything but a splash wound with that bullet. They appear to me to be similar to the Berger hunting bullets - match bullets with a hunting moniker.
