Hornady 82214 Precision Hunter 30-378 Weatherby Mag 220gr ELD-X

The Hornady Precision Hunter 82214 delivers exceptional long-range performance for hunters pursuing big game at extended distances. This premium ammunition combines the proven 220-grain ELD-X bullet with match-grade components to achieve superior accuracy and terminal performance in the powerful 30-378 Weatherby Magnum chambering.

What Makes This Different

The ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag eXpanding) bullet technology sets this ammunition apart from conventional hunting rounds. Heat Shield tip technology prevents tip deformation during flight, maintaining the bullet's ballistic coefficient throughout its trajectory. This results in flatter flight paths and more consistent expansion compared to traditional polymer-tipped bullets that can melt and deform at high velocities.

Key Features

• 220-grain ELD-X bullet with Heat Shield tip for consistent long-range performance
• Match-grade brass cases with optimal case capacity for maximum velocity
• Secant ogive design reduces drag and wind drift at extended ranges
• Interlock ring mechanically locks core and jacket for controlled expansion
• Premium powder charge optimized for 30-378 Weatherby Magnum ballistics
• 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
• Muzzle velocity approximately 3,100 fps from 26-inch barrel

This cartridge excels in hunting scenarios where shot distances exceed 300 yards, particularly for elk, moose, and other large game. The 30-378 Weatherby Magnum's high velocity combined with the ELD-X bullet's aerodynamic design maintains over 2,000 ft-lbs of energy beyond 500 yards. The controlled expansion characteristics ensure deep penetration while creating sufficient wound channels for quick, ethical kills.
