If you want a flashy new bullet in a 200 grain magnum .300, give the Federal Edge TLR a try. Federal reliability, real premium ammo, just quality stuff, not the advertising that Hornady puts out.
I was having trouble getting my Kimber 300 WSM to group, the heavier I went with bullets, the tighter it grouped. I did try the 200 grain ELDX and had 19 out of 20 group as well but not better than the TLR, but true to my Hornady experience, quality control is lacking so not every cartridge can be trusted. Maybe ok hand loading by why not go with known quality for your hunt?
My Ruger 300 win mag does love the 180 grain loads and I always get perfect mushrooms with Trophy Bonded.
