Hornady 284 Cal 7mm 150gr CX

The Hornady 284 Cal 7mm 150gr CX is a monolithic copper alloy bullet engineered for exceptional terminal performance, deep penetration, and superior weight retention. As part of Hornady’s CX (Copper alloy eXpanding) line, this projectile is designed for all-range hunting and is fully compatible with areas that restrict lead-based ammunition. With a bullet diameter of .284″, it is ideal for reloaders developing hunting loads for popular 7mm cartridges such as 7mm Rem Mag, 7mm PRC, 280 Rem, and 7mm-08 Rem.

Weighing 150gr, the 7mm CX bullet balances high ballistic performance with rugged terminal characteristics. Its Heat Shield Tip resists aerodynamic heating and maintains a consistent meplat for better long-range accuracy, while the optimized ogive and boat tail enhance its G1 and G7 ballistic coefficients. Engineered grooves on the shank reduce bearing surface for lower pressures and easier seating, helping reloaders maintain case integrity and optimal velocity.

The CX design offers 95%+ weight retention and delivers controlled expansion across a wide range of velocities. This makes it highly effective on medium to large game including deer, elk, and antelope. The bullet’s uniform copper alloy construction eliminates core-jacket separation and ensures consistent terminal behavior, especially in deep-penetration scenarios. Its lead-free composition also meets environmental regulations for use on public lands and in non-toxic zones.

Hornady 284 Cal 7mm 150gr CX bullets are manufactured with tight tolerances and consistent geometry to support precise seating and excellent accuracy. Whether used for western big game, long-range hunting, or backcountry pursuits, this bullet offers unmatched reliability and performance in challenging field conditions. Its rugged construction and aerodynamic profile make it a top choice for hunters prioritizing both ethical impact and modern ballistic efficiency.

Designed for reloaders seeking a durable, high-performance option in lead-free hunting bullets, the Hornady 7mm 150gr CX delivers terminal consistency, long-range capability, and the peace of mind that comes with clean environmental compliance and trusted Hornady quality.
