Hooding to get Hornady 143 ELD-X bullets to shoot well.
Thinking of trying Hornady Superformance Powder first, not much info on it out there tho.
Anyone use it...?
Is it very temp sensitive..?
And as a bonus anyone have experience with the ELD-X bullets on game..?
Thanks in advance.

I have used superformance in my .243/ I do not have a 6.5 creedmoore. It has given me various degrees of success with 80 to 105 gr. bullets. I chrono everything & have noticed that it is quite temp sensitive. I've had better luck with Hybrid 100 V, great accuracy& speed, very consistant velocities, & not very temp sensitive. I shoot 105gr. hornady bt.hp.match BC.530 , using 6/10ths. under max. from hornady manual, with lapua case& fed. match primer, 10 thou. off lands---for 3070fps. avg. for 15 rounds. Hornady's max. of 41.6grs. shows 2900fps. with 24" barrel. Mine is also 24"--1 in 9.25" twist-this is an awesome long range load for targets or coyotes, & my pressure shows normal. This load hangs right with a 6.5 creedmoore 140gr. out to 700yds. except for energy, cause it's starting out faster. Hybrid 100 v might be you're answer. I don't know how it will perform on coyotes, so if anyone has tried , please chime in. I'm also getting sub moa @ 350yds. not trying too hard.
