The Hornady Precision Hunter 270 WSM delivers exceptional long-range performance with its 145-grain ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag eXpanding) bullet technology. This premium hunting ammunition combines match-grade accuracy with devastating terminal performance on big game at extended distances.
What Makes This Different
The ELD-X bullet features a Heat Shield tip that resists deformation in flight, maintaining aerodynamic efficiency far beyond conventional polymer-tipped bullets. While standard hunting rounds lose accuracy past 400 yards due to tip inconsistency, the ELD-X maintains sub-MOA precision at 600+ yards. The secant ogive profile and optimized boat-tail design reduce drag by 15% compared to traditional hunting bullets.Key Features
