The Hornady 80711 Match ammunition delivers exceptional long-range precision with its 180-grain ELD-Match projectile in 7mm PRC. This match-grade cartridge combines advanced ballistic design with consistent powder charges to achieve superior accuracy at extended distances.
What Makes This Different
The Extremely Low Drag (ELD) Match bullet features a Heat Shield tip that resists deformation at high velocities, maintaining consistent ballistic coefficients throughout flight. Unlike conventional match bullets that can vary in performance due to tip inconsistency, the ELD-M design provides predictable trajectory and wind drift characteristics. Factory testing shows sub-MOA accuracy potential when fired from quality precision rifles.
Key Features
- 180-grain ELD-Match bullet with Heat Shield tip technology
- 7mm PRC cartridge optimized for long-range performance
- Consistent powder charges for shot-to-shot reliability
- High ballistic coefficient for reduced wind drift
- Match-grade brass cases for precision reloading
- Factory-tested for sub-MOA accuracy potential
- 20 rounds per box for extended range sessions
This ammunition excels in precision rifle competitions where consistent point of impact matters most. The 7mm PRC cartridge provides flat trajectory and retained energy at distances exceeding 1,000 yards, making it suitable for long-range hunting applications. The ELD-Match bullet maintains stability in various weather conditions, from temperature extremes to crosswinds that challenge lesser projectiles.
