Anyone use the 69 grain ELD-VT bullet yet? How was the performance? Velocity? Performance on coyotes/game? What cartridge did you use it in? Thanks in advance.
 
I loaded some up in 24” 22 creedmoor Using N555 I did a ladder up to 3700 fps with no pressure signs. I loaded them at 3600 fps. They shot real well. Very accurate. I talked to a guy who was
Shooting them at 3300 fps and he said he thought they weren’t killing coyotes well enough. So then I got scared hahah. Haven’t tried them on coyote yet
 
Thanks Ermine. Any idea what he didn't like about the performance?
He just said that he shot a few coyotes. “12 ringed them.” And the bullet was too frangible and wasn’t penetrating far enough. He showed me a video of one Frontal shot he shot it. And coyote dropped then got up and ran off
