Hornady ELD Match 22 Cal .224 73gr Bullets - 100ct Box

The Hornady ELD Match .224 caliber 73-grain bullets deliver exceptional long-range accuracy through advanced ballistic design and Heat Shield technology. These match-grade projectiles maintain their ballistic coefficient throughout flight, providing consistent performance for precision shooting applications.

What Makes This Different

The ELD (Extremely Low Drag) design incorporates Hornady's Heat Shield tip technology, which resists deformation from aerodynamic heating that degrades other polymer tips during flight. This maintains the bullet's optimal ballistic coefficient and accuracy potential at extended ranges. The 73-grain weight provides superior wind resistance compared to lighter .224 bullets while maintaining flat trajectory characteristics.

Key Features

• Heat Shield tip technology prevents tip deformation during flight
• Secant ogive profile maximizes ballistic coefficient for flat trajectory
• AMP (Advanced Manufacturing Process) jacket ensures consistent wall thickness
• 73-grain weight optimized for 1:7 and 1:8 twist rate barrels
• Match-grade construction with tight weight tolerances
• Streamlined boat-tail design reduces drag and improves stability
• 100 bullets per box for extended shooting sessions

These bullets excel in competitive shooting environments where precision matters most. The 73-grain weight performs exceptionally well in AR-15 platforms with appropriate twist rates, delivering sub-MOA accuracy potential when paired with quality components. The advanced tip technology maintains performance consistency across temperature variations, making these bullets reliable for both match competition and precision varmint hunting applications.
