Hornady 22 Cal 80gr ELD-X

Introducing the Hornady 22 Cal 80gr ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) bullet—a pinnacle of technological advancement and match accuracy, meticulously designed for ALL-RANGE hunting scenarios. This exceptional hunting bullet sets the standard with its unparalleled ballistic coefficients and unwavering controlled expansion across ALL practical hunting distances.

BEST-IN-CLASS BC Backed by Doppler radar verification, the Heat Shield™ tip remains impervious to aerodynamic heating effects, ensuring it retains its shape for the highest-in-class ballistic coefficient throughout the entire trajectory.

MATCH ACCURATE HUNTING BULLET The streamlined secant ogive, coupled with an optimal boattail design, merges seamlessly with highly concentric AMP bullet jackets and the Heat Shield™ tip, resulting in a bullet of radical aerodynamic efficiency—delivering match accuracy in hunting scenarios.

DEVASTATING CONVENTIONAL RANGE PERFORMANCE Experience consistent expansion from 0 to 400 yards as the bullet progressively opens along its penetration path. The robust shank of the jacket, paired with the high InterLock™ ring, ensures core-jacket integrity, providing an impressive 50-60% weight retention.

BEST EXTENDED-RANGE TERMINAL PERFORMANCE AVAILABLE Upon low-velocity impacts beyond 400 yards, the Heat Shield™ tip shifts backward into the bullet, initiating expansion. This results in deep penetration, generous wound cavities, and a conventional expansion with a substantial mushroom, boasting an impressive 85-90% retained weight.

ELD-X bullets are exclusively available in factory-loaded Precision Hunter ammunition.
