Experience superior performance and extend your effective hunting range with Hornady ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag - Expanding) 7mm .284" 175gr Projectiles. These technologically advanced, match-accurate hunting bullets are engineered for all practical hunting distances, featuring highest-in-class ballistic coefficients and consistent, controlled expansion.

• Best-in-Class Ballistic Coefficients: 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 ballistic coefficient over its entire trajectory.
• Match-Accurate Hunting Projectile: A streamlined secant ogive with an optimum boattail design, combined with highly concentric AMP® bullet jackets and the Heat Shield® tip, delivers radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.
• Optimised Conventional Range Performance: With high-velocity impacts from 0-400 yards, the projectile continually expands throughout its penetration path. The thick shank of the jacket and a high InterLock® ring keep the core and jacket together, providing 50-60% weight retention.
• Superior Extended Range Terminal Performance: Upon low-velocity impacts at 400+ yards, the Heat Shield® tip drives backward into the projectile to initiate expansion. Exhibiting conventional expansion with a large mushroom and 85-90% retained weight, the projectile provides deep penetration and large wound cavities.

Heat Shield® Technology: In 2012, Hornady engineers set out to create a new projectile that performed exceptionally well at all practical hunting distances. While many projectiles work effectively from 0-400 yards, few excel beyond that, and none previously worked well at both conventional and extended ranges. Through state-of-the-art aeroballistics software, Doppler radar, and decades of projectile performance knowledge, Hornady developed the revolutionary Heat Shield® Tip, creating an entirely new class of projectile designed to extend your range without compromise.
