20rds – 6.5 PRC Federal 143gr. ELD-X Ammo

Federal Ammunition 143 Grain ELD-X Ammo Details

Outstanding. It’s not just some crummy 6.5 PRC ammo which isn’t worth bupkis. It’s Federal Premium’s crème de la crème de la crème 6.5 PRC hunting ammo, loaded with nothing less than the Extremely Low Drag ‑ eXpanding (ELD-X) projectile by Hornady.

Order this ammo if you just want match accuracy. Its Drag Variability Reduction Technology polymer tip’s flat nose minimizes dispersion. Its Heat Shield tip is also made of special polymer which doesn’t melt and deform while it’s cooked by air friction. The ELD-X’s boat tail, superbly concentric Advanced Process Jacket, and secant ogive profile only do more to increase the bullet’s precision. Once the 143 grain bullet leaps out of a 24” barrel, its 0.625 G1 BC will ensure it reaches 500 yards with more than 1,500 ft lbs striking energy, as well as exhibits (approximately) this kind of trajectory: 0 yds, -3.00” → 100 yds, 7.95” → 200 yds, 14.28” → 300 yds, 15.49” → 400 yds, 10.98” → 500 yds, 0.06” → 600 yds, -18.05” → 700 yds, -44.27” → 800 yds, -79.63” → 900 yds, -125.37” → 1000 yds, -182.88”.

The ELD-X is tough as nails. Between its InterLock ring and cannelure, it has two defenses against core/jacket separation – hence its ability to conserve as much as 60% of its weight following very close-range impact. And unlike the ELD Match, the ELD-X is perfectly engineered to deliver the massive expansion which ends a hunt properly.
