Hornady 178 ELD M transsonic stability

While looking fo Berger 185 Juggernaut replacement I found that 178 ELD M at the same muzzle energy produces nearly identical ballistics (drift in 1mps/3mph wind within 0.5" up to a 1000m/1100y). It looks great on paper, but I'm wondering how will it tolerate trans and subsonic transitions at longer ranges?

Me too!  I agree they look good on paper.

I've just done some initial development for them using N540 ('cause I have it). 2730 fps and a good tight group at 100yds.  24" barrel, 1:11. Seems to be a clean, full burn.  Will be trying 500yds tomorrow and I'm off to Eskdalemuir to try +1000 on Monday.  I'll feed back.
