.264 147gr ELD-M bullets?

[DenverDave]

I was looking forward to trying these but now that I am reloading they seem to be scarce. Midway has them listed as "no backorder available" which stands out because they are taking back orders on everything Hornady.

Is there a problem with these?

I'm not aware of any problems, like most new high BC bullets a lot of people snatch them up as soon as they come out. I got 300 from Midway as soon as they got them in stock, still haven't even tried them out.

Anyways, I'm sure they'll come back in stock soon enough, just sign up at a couple different websites for an in stock notification. And if you really want to try them right away you can always buy a couple boxes of the 147gr ELD 6.5 Creedmoor* factory ammo just to see if your rifle likes them.
