20rds – 243 Win Federal 90gr. ELD-X Ammo

Federal Ammunition 90 Grain ELD-X Ammo Details

Extremely Low Drag - eXpanding. The ELD-X is named after a bold claim, yet its performance lives up to all of Hornady’s promises. And when it’s loaded by Federal Premium, the ELD-X has everything it needs to wholly satisfy your expectations for your 243 Win long-range hunting ammunition!

The ELD-X owes its extremely low drag to several features. Its boat tail, secant ogive profile, and Heat Shield tip (which is made of polymer that cannot become misshapen as it is broiled by aerodynamic friction) all make its profile sleek as can be. And thanks to its Advanced Manufacturing Process jacket – which exhibits virtually zero runoff or variation in thickness – the ELD-X possesses superior rotational stability as well. Once the ELD-X hits its posted muzzle velocity of 3,150 fps, its 0.409 G1 ballistic coefficient will carry it to 300 yards without following a trajectory that rises more than 4.4” above the bore line (assuming 1.5” sight height).

The ELD-X is a tough little bullet thanks to its thick jacket shank, as well as the InterLock ring which mechanically embeds its jacket into its alloyed lead core. Unlike the ELD Match, the ELD-X’s Heat Shield is positioned over a deep nose cavity. Once impact plunges it inside, the tip commences controlled expansion that only becomes deadlier thanks to the ELD-X’s capacity for high weight retention and deep penetration.

Federal’s nickel-plated cases aren’t just lustrous. They are inherently resistant to corrosion, and they are also slick to promote the smoothest possible functionality in all makes and models of 243 Win rifles. Our fast shipping only makes this sweet ammo even sweeter!
