Hornady ELD-X 7mm .284 175gr Hunting Bullets - 100 Count Box

The Hornady ELD-X 7mm .284 175-grain bullets deliver exceptional long-range accuracy and controlled expansion for big game hunting. These premium hunting projectiles feature Hornady's Heat Shield tip technology that maintains ballistic coefficient integrity at extended distances. The advanced design provides reliable terminal performance across a wide velocity range.

What Makes This Different

The ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag - eXpanding) bullet incorporates a Heat Shield tip that resists aerodynamic heating better than traditional polymer tips. This technology prevents tip deformation during flight, maintaining the bullet's ballistic coefficient of .660 G1 throughout its trajectory. The result is flatter flight paths and more predictable drop compensation compared to conventional hunting bullets that lose BC as velocity increases.

Key Features

• Heat Shield tip maintains ballistic integrity at all velocities
• Optimized secant ogive profile for superior long-range ballistics
• InterLock ring mechanically locks core and jacket together
• Controlled expansion from 1,600 to 3,000+ fps impact velocity
• High-antimony lead core for consistent weight retention
• Boat tail design reduces drag and wind drift
• Match-grade construction with tight weight tolerances

Field testing demonstrates consistent 1-2 inch groups at 200 yards from quality hunting rifles. The bullets perform effectively on medium to large game including elk, moose, and African plains game. Terminal ballistics remain consistent whether impacting at close-range velocities exceeding 2,800 fps or long-range impacts below 2,000 fps. Weather conditions have minimal effect on accuracy due to the aerodynamically stable design.
