The 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 +). 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.
ELD-X™ .30 CALIBER RIFLE BULLETS FOR UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE
The ELD-X™ bullet from HORNADY is a cutting-edge, match-accurate hunting bullet designed for ALL-RANGE performance. With the highest-in-class ballistic coefficients and controlled expansion, it delivers consistent results at all practical hunting distances.
Key Features:
- Advanced Technology: Features a patent pending Heat Shield™ tip that resists melting and deformation.
- Consistent Expansion: Designed to expand throughout its penetration path, ensuring lethal results.
- Durable Design: The InterLock ring keeps the core and jacket together for maximum effectiveness.
- Exceptional Accuracy: Maintains accuracy and performance even at extended ranges (400 yds +).
Unlike conventional polymer tips, which can melt in flight and degrade performance, the ELD-X™ bullet's innovative design ensures that it maintains its shape and accuracy. The thin nose section peels back upon impact, shedding material until it reaches the thick shank, where the InterLock ring secures the core and jacket together. This allows the remaining heavy shank to continue driving forward and expanding for extremely lethal results.
Whether you are hunting in moderate ranges or pushing the limits at longer distances, the ELD-X™ .30 CALIBER (.308") RIFLE BULLETS are engineered to deliver the performance you need. Available in a convenient 100/box packaging, these bullets are a must-have for serious hunters.
