This was at 300, not 350. I was very confident in my shooting this trip. I certainly didn't expect a one hole group, but I was hoping for about a 1" group. This is in the ballpark of 1.6 inches if I remove the flier (not certain where it came from). Maybe I should try ditching the eld-x and trying some bergers? Where would you boys go from here?

I would certainly try bergers or even sierras, especially in a gun with a match chamber and good 1-8" twist like you have. If you have a VLD style projectile, you might want try getting the COAL so it's very close to the lands. Might show improvement in your longer range testing. I always wanted to try seating rounds into the lands, but I'm paranoid of having a cease fire called right after I chamber and end up pulling the round apart and getting powder in my action. Oh well.
