Extend your range and never compromise at any distance with Hornady ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag - eXpanding) projectiles. These technologically advanced, match-accurate, all-range hunting bullets feature 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. It retains its shape to maintain the highest-in-class ballistic coefficient over its entire trajectory.
• Match Accurate Hunting Bullet: A streamlined secant ogive with an optimum boattail design, combined with highly concentric AMP bullet jackets and the Heat Shield tip, results in radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.
• 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.

In 2012, Hornady engineers were tasked with creating a new bullet. The main goal was to have a hunting projectile that worked well at all practical distances. While many bullets perform well from 0-400 yards, few excel beyond that, and none previously worked effectively at both conventional and extended ranges.

Introducing the Heat Shield Tip – a single tip designed for exceptional performance across all distances. Hornady engineers, utilising state-of-the-art aeroballistics software, Doppler radar, and decades of bullet performance knowledge, have developed an entirely new class of bullet to extend your range without compromise.
