Barnes LRX bullets
Ordered some Barnes LRX bullets for reloading. Optics Planet had them in stock when most other suppliers were out of stock. The product was shipped very fast. I will be ordering more of my reloading supplies from this site.
Hornady's top shelf bullet
ELD-X bullets shoot consistently good in my guns. I'm shooting these in my Tikka t3x Ace Target and have got 3 round groups in the same hole at 100 yards consistent. Love them!

Mediocre Results and Deforming Jackets
Compared to Berger bullets, I have not gotten very satisfactory results with the 143 ELD-X in terms of either group size or muzzle velocity standard deviations using either H4350 or H4831SC. ELD-X bullets are also easily deformed during bullet seating by my Wilson VLD seating stem, unlike Bergers. Apparently, the copper jacket is very thin on the ELD-X at the front. In order to stop the deformation during seating, I had to reduce seating friction and force by expanding my case necks with a .264" mandrel (I use a .263" mandrel on Bergers) and lubing inside the case necks. For carrying loaded hunting rounds in my rifle's magazine and subjecting them to recoil, I prefer loading with a little more neck tension than that.
Pros:
- I understand that terminal performance is very good with the ELD-X.
Cons:
- Thin, easy to deform copper jacket
- Requires lighter neck tension
- Middling precision and velocity SDs.
Best Used for:
- Deer Hunting
Would recommend: No
Screaming deal for reloaders
I have looking for the hard to find Hornady Eld-X bullets, in a 6.5 mm, .264, 143 grain bullets for quite some time. Then out of nowhere Optics planet came up with a screaming deal. No brainer scoop them up while the going is good, and at a great price too!
Thanks

Excellent performer / Very accurate consistent results
Outstanding bullet. Loaded up 40 rounds to try it with using Hodgdon / Hornady Super Performance Powder .Used two different powder loads, one being just below recommended max. Very consistently shoots 1/4 / 3/8 MOA with Ruger Precision 6.5 at 100 yards. Would expect it to preform very well out to a 1000 yards.
Pros:
- Excellent performer !
Cons:
- Can't thank of any ?
Would recommend: Yes
Hornady bullets are top notch!
In today's economic and political climate, reloading supplies has taken a nose dive. Primers, powder and bullets are a 'commodity' that has and still is affected for reloaders, with reasons unknown. It's great that Optics Planet has jumped into the ring, and had a great price for what I was looking for.
Pros:
- ELD-x are very accurate and perform great on impact.
Cons:
- None
- None for me
Best Used for:
- Hunting long range and target
Would recommend: Yes

6” groups at 1000 yards
Guys, I’m primarily a deer hunter, recently I acquired a Savage 110 in 6.5 Creedmoor. Having hand loaded my ammo for 30+ years I was able to work up a load with the 143 grn ELDX and in preparation for a hunt in Nebraska, I sought out a place to shoot at distance. Found a range with steel out to 1000yards in 100yard increments. Using my Trijicon 5x20 scope I was amazed at this rifle’s and bullets accuracy. Never expected to see much less hit a target at a 1000 yards but I did. I’ve taken two deer one at 400 yards and another at 80 yards. Bullet performance was perfect on both. I’m sold on Hornady’s ELDX !
Best Used for:
- Hunting and target long range
