The Gas gun lower pressure loads may not be giving up quite as much velocity as may first thought. Barrel length is a factor in velocity as well.
So with the all metal GMX or CX bullet it is lighter weight or the bullet is to long for chamber compared to like a ELD-x 

So I need a GMX with a tungsten center to have a 103gr bullet without a lead center that retains energy down range ?
??
I was just thinking that the cx bullets are lighter and was assuming that in order to get a 103 gr cx it would be to long for a 6arc. Is that a wrong assumption ? Tungsten is heavier than lead and harder so a cx style bullet with a tungsten core would be heavier and same length as a 103eldx.
Not knowing anything about reloading or bullets in general I assume that heavier retains energy down range better than lighter 
That would remove the lead from the bullet that would also meet California standards ?
Or have I gotten so far out in left field I am no longer in the ball park ?
