Description

The Hornady ELD-X bullet is a technologically advanced match accurate ALL-RANGE hunting bullet featuring highest-in-class ballistic coefficients and consistent controlled expansion at ALL practical hunting distances. All manufacturers conventional polymer tips in high BC bullets melt in flight.

Hornady engineers discovered that conventional bullet tip materials in streamlined high BC bullets melt and deform. Although not a significant issue affecting moderate BC conventional tipped varmint and hunting bullets aerodynamic heating causes BC reduction and degradation of accuracy particularly at extended ranges (400 yds plus). To counter this effect Hornady identified a heat resistant polymer and developed the patent pending Heat Shield tip. This revolutionary new tip creates the perfect meplat (tip) with exceptionally consistent results from bullet-to-bullet and lot-to-lot. At conventional range (0-400 yards) the ELD-X bullet is designed to continually expand throughout its penetration path. Upon impact the thin nose section of the bullet peels back and sheds material until it reaches the thick shank of the bullet jacket where the InterLock ring works to keep the core and jacket together. The remaining heavy shank of the bullet continues to drive forward and expand for extremely lethal results. Upon contact at extended range (400 plus yards) the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the carefully designed nose cavity to begin the expansion process. At these lower velocities the ELD-X bullet exhibits conventional expansion characteristics with a large mushroom and high retained weight ensuring deep penetration and large wound cavities.

Available as component bullets or in factory loaded ELD-X Precision Hunter ammunition ELD-X bullets are “heavy caliber” and designed for maximum ballistic coefficients the highest levels of accuracy consistency and extreme lethality at ALL practical hunting distances.
