Hornady ELD-X 6mm .243 103gr Bullets - 100 Count Box

The Hornady ELD-X 6mm .243 103 grain bullets deliver exceptional long-range performance with their advanced Heat Shield tip technology. These bullets maintain consistent BC values throughout flight, solving the accuracy degradation issues common with traditional polymer-tipped projectiles. Professional hunters and precision shooters rely on ELD-X bullets for their superior ballistic coefficient and controlled expansion at extended distances.

What Makes This Different

The patented Heat Shield tip resists aerodynamic heating that typically deforms standard plastic tips during flight. This technology maintains the bullet's ballistic coefficient from muzzle to target, delivering up to 40% better accuracy retention compared to conventional hunting bullets. The AMP jacket design provides controlled expansion across a wide velocity range, from 1,600 to 3,000 fps impact velocities.

Key Features

• Heat Shield tip technology prevents tip deformation and maintains BC integrity
• 103 grain weight optimized for 6mm/.243 Winchester cartridges
• Secant ogive profile reduces drag and improves long-range trajectory
• AMP (Advanced Manufacturing Process) jacket ensures uniform wall thickness
• InterLock ring mechanically locks core and jacket together
• High-performance boat tail design minimizes base drag
• 100 bullets per box for extended shooting sessions

Field testing demonstrates consistent 0.5-1.0 MOA accuracy in quality rifle platforms at ranges exceeding 600 yards. The controlled expansion design performs effectively on medium game from whitetail deer to antelope, with reliable penetration through shoulder shots. These bullets maintain structural integrity in adverse weather conditions and temperature extremes from -40°F to 125°F.
