308Nut Report post Posted July 28, 2016 I shot this three shot group (168 ABLR) this morning at 300 yards off the bench. Right at 1-3/8" center to center. I wouldn't call it conclusive as its only the second group I've shot with them but in both cases, they shot with the same degree of accuracy as the 162 ELDMs I was working with at the time including today. I dropped .5 grain from my 162 pet load and didn't adjust my seating die in either case either. I haven't measured the distance from the lands yet but the comparator showed they would be further from them so I rolled with it. All things considered, I'm going to stick with the 162 ELDM for general practice and probably deer/antelope and other light boned critters. They're reasonably priced compared to the ABLR and scary accurate/consistent and their BC is tough to beat. I don't know if it's higher than the original AMAX but I do know the 208 ELDM is noticeably higher than the AMAX so if I had to guess, I'd say it most likely is but I'll prove that later. If the 168 ABLR proves to stay consistent in my rig, I'll definately use them on the heavier variety of game. Larger mule deer, black bears, elk etc... They worked well in my 300 win, no reason they shouldn't work in my 280AI. Regards, M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
