Well it finally happened: I ran out of my stockpile of 123gr A-Max bullets. As far as I can tell they are discontinued. I had a consistently sub-moa load for my favorite rifle that I've used for many years. I had been using 27.1gr of 8208 XBR. But alas, all good things must eventually come to an end.
I bought a box of 123gr ELD-M and loaded them with the same powder charge and it does not shoot well. So I need to work up a new load. My hornady manual is too old to have the ELD-M bullet in it. Does anyone know what Hornady says the max powder charge of 8208 XBR is with the 123gr ELD-M?
