Did Hornady Change 147 ELD-M Bullet?

I have shot 2,000 147 ELD-M bullets in the past 3 years.
For the last 1,200 rounds I switched to the Lapua 139gr Scenar and couldn't be happier.
Yes I know that the bc of the Scenar is inferior to that of the ELD-M but I am shooting smaller groups and have been scoring personal best scores in my last 3 competitions.
As an added bonus the Scenars are cheaper than the ELD-M's.

Here's the thing. In America, the war of ideas is supposed to be fought with ballots, not bullets. Once we lose that, we lose everything else. Demonizing Americans who have different ideas than you do only adds energy to those who want us to fail. Cheering on the murder of your fellow Americans is beyond the pale. Political violence has no place in America; that's it, full stop. If you disagree with that you can fuck off.

Well, I don’t disagree. It has no place.

But apparently the commies do disagree. So do the left and Democrats who have run the gamut of political assassinations from Lincoln to present. So if they are going to kill their own fo being not left enough… perhaps they are saving lives in the long run.

Because if the dead couple had their way, they would exterminate Republicans, patriots or other good Americans like Pol Pot on speed.

So while their behavior is abhorrent, I have come to expect it to the point that if that’s how they roll… at least the dude didn’t kill anyone worth a damn. So not shedding a tear.

As I won’t shed a tear when the guy is picked up, charged, tried and electrocuted… the sooner the better.

Hopefully while he is running free he doesn’t take out anyone worthwhile.

Go on YouTube and search for Palmer Lucky, creator of the oculus rift, and the current owner of Anduril, and listen to what he has to say about the situation.

Current estimates say the US runs out of missiles on day 8 of a war with China in the South China Sea and Pacific Ocean.

Unless all those nations, who’ve been stockpiling our weapon systems, resupply us in a war China or resupply Israel during war with Iran, things are gonna get messy pretty messy.

Remember how the US attempted to use technology to bomb the North Vietnamese, the Afghanis, the Iraqis, Isis, etc. back to the Stone Age? And our opponents adapted their tactics and forced us from the field.

If Israel doesn’t occupy Iran and establish western values, what ever damage they do in the short term will pale in comparison to the damage they will receive via vengeance.

“Men ought either to be indulged or utterly destroyed, for if you merely offend them they take vengeance, but if you injure them greatly they are unable to retaliate, so that the injury done to a man ought to be such you have no fear of reprisal.”

🤣😂 countries that have been stockpiling our weapons helping us out when we run out? That’s funny shit. You know good and damn well that ain’t happening. This is what happens when you have idiots running shit. No idea what our real numbers are at this point but it’s a pretty safe bet that we could not build enough fast enough in a major conflict. And this isn’t WW2. I don’t see most of the country jumping in to support anything like that either.

Because...The Jews convinced the Christians that they were God's chosen people.
I don’t think they care to convince Christian’s of anything. The Torah is made up of one of the oldest text known.
Much of the old testimate and the Torah are the same. Even the Koran shares similarities.

They simply reject the manmade texts on accounts which makes up the New Testimate. I’m over simplifying but essentially that’s it. They don’t believe in Jesus.

It gets complicated. Look at it from this perspective; Who was in charge of saying one story was true while, while rejecting say, the book of Enoch?

Mossad and the Israeli leadership is playing chess. Because Israel needs threats to survive.

manageable threats. threats that can be hyped up and blown out of proportion to assist the regime. If they didn't keep up a mentality of "hannibal at the gates" they would fall apart. So they manipulate affairs all around them - overthrow Assad, install ISIS - and keep the system going and the money and weapons flowing in. People talk about Russia having imperialist claims......but that is child's play in comparison. modern rabbinical judiasm insists that the jews as a group, and not necessarily any one person, will become the savior of the world, the messiah, and rule all the dumb sheep with a rod of iron.

Well, lots of religious texts promise plenty…

So I don’t put too much trust in their outcomes. Even if they do believe it.

So I have question that is probably not popular: why is it acceptable for Israel to hit a nuke facility and have radiation dispersion risks but it isn’t for Iran to do the same back?
Because...The Jews convinced the Christians that they were God's chosen people. The Zionists took full advantage of that in creating the nation/state called Israel and convincing the gullible Jews it was from God when it was from gold. The rich gold merchants controlled the economies of Europe, financed their wars, and were owed big time. After the holocaust they had the sympathy of the world and played on that.

Sadly, their own Torah says that the Jews are not to have a homeland but to live amongst the people/nations of the earth. So they are in direct disobedience to what their God commanded. I cant speak for others but the few times I've disobeyed, the outcome was less than optimal.

Not sure why you’re asking me, but I always guess two weeks based on known stock piles and a strategic shift to “shock and awe” vs. WWII or Vietnam sustained bombardment.

The the fallacy in Israel’s thinking, in my opinion, is relying on the United States for a resupply when we’ve wasted so many munitions in Ukraine, that US’s ability to resupply is strained at best.

Major combat ops? One week, two at the outside.

Grok agrees.


Unless Saudi starts emptying out the stockpiles at KKMC and similar and sneaking them to the Israeli's. They have the most to gain and their stockpiles of US equipment are mountainous! Same with some of the Trucial states... and Kuwait. All of which benefit from Iran getting 'smoked!

Wouldn't that be an interesting turn of the worm?
