Hornady ELD-X Bullets

Hornady ELD-X Bullets

The Hornady ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag eXpanding) bullet is an excellent choice for match grade accuracy with a polymer tip when hunting at extended range. Boasting the best ballistic coefficient and most consistent and controlled expansion compared to other tipped bullets of the same class. The AMP jacket features the Hornady ELD-x's Interlock ring which allows the core to retain 85-90% of weight, allowing deep penetration and large wound cavities. The revolutionary Heat Shield® polymer tip is Doppler radar verified to eliminate tip melting, in-flight shape changes, and decreased ballistic coefficients.

BEST-IN-CLASS BCS

Verified by Doppler radar, the Heat Shield^® tip is immune to the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to maintain the highest-in-class BC over its entire trajectory.

MATCH ACCURATE HUNTING BULLET

Streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design + highly concentric AMP^® bullet jackets + Heat Shield^® tip combine for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.

ELD-X bullets are available in factory loaded

DEVASTATING CONVENTIONAL RANGE PERFORMANCE

With high velocity 0-400 yard impact, the bullet continually expands throughout its penetration path. The thick shank of the jacket and high InterLock^® ring keep the core and jacket together providing 50-60% weight retention.

BEST EXTENDED RANGE TERMINAL PERFORMANCE AVAILABLE

Upon low-velocity 400+ yard impacts, the Heat Shield^® tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion. Exhibiting conventional expansion with a large mushroom and 85-90% retained weight the bullet provides deep penetration and large wound cavities.
