ELDX, AB, ABLR... all great bullets. The irony of comparing terminal performance on dead animals makes me chuckle. You buy a hunting bullet to kill, and when it does just that, but doesn't look like what you want it to, that's a defect or problem. Most have been around enough to know a reputable bullet (as those are) in the hands of a competent shooter will do the job. The rest is semantics.
On a perfect shot just about anything works. When a bullet comes apart on a broad side shot on a small white tail and doesn't exist, even tho the animal drops and is DRT, it doesn't mean the bullet is good for anything else. I 100%wouldn't take that bullet out west for muleys or to Colorado for elk no matter what the maker says.
The Scirocco I used 2 weeks ago on a white tail doe, 160 yards went though on a quartering too shot. About 18" of deer before the exit. Bullet obviously not recovered but butchering showed excellent expansion and a large exit wound.
