Hornady 178gr ELD-X 30 cal (BC 0.552)

Product Features

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 boat tail design + highly concentric AMP^® bullet jackets + Heat Shield^® tip combine for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.

ELD-X bullets are available in factory loaded Precision Hunter ammunition.

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.
