Description
ELD Match bullets are technologically advanced, enhanced accuracy target bullets featuring Heat Shield tips with the PERFECT MEPLAT (tip point) combined with numerous design features that deliver the highest-in-class ballistic coefficients, superior accuracy and extreme consistency from bullet-to-bullet, lot-to-lot.
Although not a significant issue affecting moderate BC conventional tipped varmint and hunting bullets, aerodynamic heating causes BC reduction and degradation of accuracy, particularly at extended ranges (400 yds +). To counter this effect, Hornady identified a heat resistant polymer and developed the Heat Shield tip. This revolutionary new tip creates the perfect meplat (tip) with exceptionally consistent results from bullet-to-bullet and lot-to-lot.
Features
- Best-in-class BCs - The Heat Shield tip defies the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to provide a perfect meplat (tip) that is always the same shape.
- Delivers the Highest Degree of Accuracy and Consistency - Streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design + highly concentric AMP bullet jackets + Heat Shield tip creates a supremely accurate, high BC match bullet.
- Accurate, Radar Verified BCs - ELD-Match bullet BCs are measured with Doppler radar and corrected to standard atmospheric conditions. Available as component bullets or in factory loaded Hornady Match ammunition.
