What would make you want to change to an mrx if you get such good groups with the Nosler?

I am very comfortable using the 140gr ballistic tip on deer,pronghorn and bighorn,but for elk and moose ,I want more penetration especially when heavy bones are struck.

What speed difference are you geting betwwen the 2 types of bullets?

So far,both bullets are producing nearly identical velocities with the same powder charge in one rifle,and about 50 fps more with the mrx in the rifle that does not group as well.On my next trip to the range,I will be adding one grain to the mrx and if it shoots well with no pressure signs,that will be my hunting load.I expect right around 3500fps by adding another grain of powder,which will match my maximum load with the noslers.
Once my load is finalized,I will check it at 200 to 500 yards to verify the trajectory.
