220 gr ELD-X recipe
I have a bunch of 220 ELD-X laying around that I would like use for a subsonic load for a 10.5" AR. Anyone have a recipe for the 220 ELD-X? I'm having issues coming up with a CBTO or OAL measurement.

The 300Blk chamber was designed for a 220 Sierra OTM at max OAL (2.250"), I would start with the ELD-X at the same length.

2.220", 3/8 taper crimp
9/24/2016 - 8.3" @ 64°
10.4 gr A1680, Wolf 223 1003.5fps, 5.8 mad
Pretty close to 100% case fill.
I'd try IMR4227 now.

I run COAL at 2.245" with the 220 ELD-X
10.4gn N120 from a Wilson Combat 10.3" gives 1050fps SD under 10 and around 0.9" for 5 shots at 100yd.
So far it is my favorite heavy bullet.
