Hornady ELD Match 30 Cal .308 208gr Bullets - 100ct Box

The Hornady ELD Match .308 208-grain bullets deliver exceptional long-range accuracy through advanced ballistic design and manufacturing precision. These match-grade projectiles feature Hornady's Heat Shield tip technology that maintains consistent BC throughout flight, addressing the primary limitation of traditional polymer-tipped bullets.

What Makes This Different

Unlike conventional match bullets that suffer from tip deformation at high velocities, the ELD Match incorporates a Heat Shield tip that resists melting and maintains its aerodynamic profile. This technology preserves the bullet's ballistic coefficient across all velocities, resulting in more predictable trajectories at extended ranges. Independent testing shows improved accuracy retention beyond 600 yards compared to standard match bullets.

Key Features

• Heat Shield tip technology prevents deformation and maintains consistent BC
• Secant ogive boat-tail design optimized for long-range performance
• AMP (Advanced Manufacturing Process) jacket ensures uniform wall thickness
• 208-grain weight provides excellent sectional density for wind resistance
• G1 BC of .670 and G7 BC of .343 for precise ballistic calculations
• Swaged lead core perfectly matched to jacket for consistent expansion
• 100 bullets per box with consistent weight sorting within 0.3 grains

These bullets excel in precision rifle competition where consistent performance at 600-1000 yards separates winners from the field. The 208-grain weight provides superior wind-bucking capability while maintaining supersonic velocities well beyond 1000 yards in most .308 Winchester loads. Match shooters report improved group consistency and reduced vertical stringing compared to previous generation match bullets.
