Hornady 284 Cal 7mm 162gr ELD-X
The Hornady 284 Cal 7mm 162gr 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. Ideal for a wide range of hunting scenarios, the .284 Cal projectile excels in both close and extended ranges, providing shooters with unmatched performance and consistency.
BEST-IN-CLASS BC
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 + Heat Shield™ tip combines for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency. ELD-X bullets are 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. The bullet provides deep penetration and large wound cavities, exhibiting conventional expansion with a large mushroom and 85–90% retained weight.
