Long and sleek

Received the box of 134 ELDM. Outstanding looking long and sleek bullet. Next step is to seat one in a dummy case and send to PBB for chambering my new prefit. Box arrived in immaculate condition and the bullets look great. Can't wait to get my fast twist barrel and start slinging these lazer beams. Thank you Grafs!
New hornady 25 Cal 134 grain Eld Match

So I loaded the first of these up as I shoot the Berger 135 grain LRHT in 25 Creedmoor and the berger 133 grain hunting bullet in 25 Sherman short tactical.
I tried these in the 25 Creedmoor and the velocity was one MPH off the 135s. I just duplicated my Berger load (I worked up and you should too) but these are much longer than the Bergers (seemed like I seated them .025 or .030” deeper than the berger 135s to sit with the same jump). They shot almost identical velocity and the accuracy was .25 MOA which is close to what I get with the Bergers.
That doesn’t mean they’re not as good as the Bergers as I didn’t work up a new load just tried to copy what I already had with the Berger load. I’ve got 700 of these and will develop a new load, but it’s a great sign that they performed almost identical to the Bergers at 100 yards.
Velocity was 2,898 ish w the Hornadys vs 2,897 with the Berger 135s. That’s in a 28” barrel for reference.
It is great to see 25 Cal get some love from Hornady in a heavy for caliber bullet!
Hornady? YES, please!

Finally! The much anticipated release of the quarter bore high twist, high BC Hornady ELDMs. I switched from Berger 109s to 109 ELDMs with no disappointment. This is the switch from Berger 135s to Hornady ELDMs in that caliber. I expect the same result as the previous switch. Thanks for getting these out there to fill the quarter bore void.
