20rds – 338 Win Mag Hornady Precision Hunter 230gr. ELD-X Ammo

Hornady Ammunition 230 Grain ELD-X Ammo Details

Are you tired of attempting to sprint up to a deer and put it in a headlock before it notices you and runs away? Here’s a tip: use a gun! More specifically, use a 338 Win Mag rifle loaded with Hornady’s Precision Hunter ammunition.

This cartridge floors its target with the power of the Extremely Low Drag - eXpanding bullet. It’s a true all-range hunting bullet, which delivers deep penetration and wide expansion in the blink of an eye! Sink the ELD-X into a quarry within 400 yards and its thick shank and InterLock ring will ensure no less than 50% weight retention. Aim farther and weight retention is at least 85%!

The ELD-X certainly does make those long shots easy. It’s extremely well balanced due to its super-concentric AMP jacket. It’s extremely streamlined thanks to its boat tail and ballistically efficient Heat Shield tip, the latter of which which stays sharp and symmetrical even when air friction brutally cooks it. It all adds up to a 0.616 G1 (0.310 G7) ballistic coefficient, which will keep the bullet’s velocity supersonic past 1,500 yards if you’re firing a rifle with a 24” barrel!
