I'm currently choosing between two bullets for deer hunting and long range shooting in my 6.5 Creedmoor. The 140 berger Elite hunter and the 143 Hornady eldx. I know there are tons of others out there. I took ten from each lot and used my fx120i. When weighing bullets the Berger's were more consistent with an ES of +- .09 grains where the 143 eldx were +- .115 grains. The base to ogive the 143 eldx were the winners at +- .0005 inches to the Berger's +-.00175. the bcs are pretty similar. I could never find litz article where he went over true bcs. I've heard tons of good things about both bullets. They will both kill deer so I want the best long range bullet for prs out to 1100ish yards.
Which matters more consistent weight or consistent length? Are there any other things I should be measuring?
