    Going to try some 130 grain bullets in the near future to see what kind of accuracy and velocity they will produce.

    6.5-06

    Found my problem. 1:9 twist barrel will not stabilize the 143 ELDX. I mistakenly thought I had a 1:8. So now I am considering moving it as it will not serve my purpose as I was hoping to use for elk at extended range but the 130 class bullets will loose too much energy beyond 500 yards
