Load for Eland in June 2014?
      05/05/14 08:35 AM

I'm off in three weeks to RSA in Natal with Crusader Safari. I'm bringing my Scoped SxS in 9.3x74r with 286gr Norma Orynx loads. I'm planning on using this for everything but ...

I'm also bringing a 338-06 Weatherby Ultralight for my father. I'm probably going to end up using this for eland. I have not taken one yet and it's about the only thing on my wish list that I think might need a little more range. The load I worked up for my father is a max charge of RL15 and Barnes 160gr Triple Shock X Tipped at 2950fps. He's planning to hunt Nyala, Bushbuck, Impala, Warthog and Reedbuck so I think it's fine for him and he really likes light and fast.

For Eland should I go up to the 210gr Barnes TSXT or even the 225gr?

--------------------
450-400, 9.3x74r and 7x65r.
