Here are the first group of loads using the new 103 ELD-X. I'm using similar load data I used for the 108, driving with 8208 xbr.

Well????? How did they shoot? I have a 22" BlackHole Weaponry .243 LBC barrel that is spooky accurate and I'm going to purchase a ARP 6mm Predator barrel along with a set of Hornady 6mm P dies they now have on the site.

The dies are out? Thank God! ; ) I'm still in search of the "sweet spot" load--so far the 108 ELD X's have been the best, but even with those I get .75 MOA down to .5 occasionally if I don't pull a flier (which I almost always do). Given the powders, case capacity and "harmonics voodoo" my gut feeling is that perhaps a 20" barrel (don't know if they make one) might be more consistent--but that's just a guess.
