The Hornady ELD Match 6mm .243 108 grain bullets deliver exceptional long-range accuracy through advanced ballistic coefficient engineering. These match-grade projectiles feature the patented Heat Shield tip technology that maintains aerodynamic integrity at extended distances where traditional polymer tips fail.
What Makes This Different
The ELD Match design incorporates Hornady's Heat Shield tip that resists deformation from aerodynamic heating, maintaining the bullet's ballistic coefficient throughout flight. Standard polymer-tipped bullets lose accuracy at extended ranges as heat softens the tip, but the Heat Shield technology preserves the sharp meplat essential for consistent ballistic performance. Independent testing shows ELD Match bullets maintain their advertised BC values beyond 400 yards where conventional match bullets begin to degrade.
Key Features
- Heat Shield tip technology prevents aerodynamic tip deformation
- Optimized secant ogive profile maximizes ballistic coefficient
- AMP (Advanced Manufacturing Process) jacket ensures concentricity
- Swaged lead core provides consistent weight distribution
- Boat tail design reduces drag and wind drift
- Match-grade construction with sub-MOA accuracy potential
- Compatible with standard .243 Winchester and 6mm cartridges
Long-range precision shooters rely on ELD Match bullets for F-Class competition and extended hunting applications. The 108-grain weight provides excellent sectional density for wind-bucking performance while maintaining sufficient velocity in standard .243 Winchester loads. These bullets perform consistently in temperature extremes from -40°F to 125°F, making them suitable for year-round precision shooting applications.
