Hornady 178gr ELD-X 30 Cal (BC 0.552) (100)

The Hornady ELD-X® (Extremely Low Drag - eXpanding) 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.

• 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, and the Heat Shield® tip combine for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.
• ELD-X bullets are also 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.
