Hornady ELD Match 22 Cal .224 75gr Bullets - 100ct Box

The Hornady ELD Match .224 caliber 75-grain bullets deliver exceptional long-range accuracy through advanced Heat Shield tip technology that maintains ballistic coefficient throughout flight. These match-grade projectiles feature Hornady's patented Extremely Low Drag design, engineered specifically for precision rifle competition and long-distance shooting applications.

What Makes This Different

The ELD Match bullet incorporates a Heat Shield tip that resists aerodynamic heating better than traditional polymer tips, preventing tip deformation that degrades accuracy at extended ranges. While standard match bullets lose ballistic efficiency beyond 400 yards due to tip melting, the ELD Match maintains consistent BC values past 1,000 yards. The secant ogive profile and boat-tail base design reduce drag coefficient to 0.395 G1, significantly outperforming conventional hollow point match bullets.

Key Features

• Heat Shield tip technology prevents deformation at high velocities
• Secant ogive profile with optimized bearing surface for reduced barrel wear
• Boat-tail base design minimizes drag and wind drift
• AMP (Advanced Manufacturing Process) jacket ensures concentricity within 0.0003 inches
• Ballistic coefficient of 0.395 G1 / 0.200 G7 for superior long-range performance
• Lead core bonded to jacket for consistent expansion and weight retention
• Compatible with standard .224 twist rates from 1:8 to 1:7 inches

These bullets excel in F-Class competition, precision rifle series matches, and long-range varmint hunting where sub-MOA accuracy is essential. The 75-grain weight provides excellent stability in crosswinds while maintaining supersonic velocity past 800 yards when loaded to optimal velocities. Temperature stability remains consistent from -20°F to 125°F, making them reliable across diverse shooting conditions.
