So I see that hornady has a 147g ELDM with a G1 of 697! Crap, anyone try any of these yet? I also heard they are the same length as the 143g ELDX. I am Assuming they will stabilize in a 1-8?
 
I deducted 50 FPS for the 147gr. Only an 8 yard advantage at 1,000 over the 143gr ELD X.

Hard to beat a 7 Rem Mag. It is a factory round that performs. The 6.5 is just more efficient by weight.
