Hornady 80994 308 Win 178 gr ELD-X Ammo

Experience the pinnacle of accuracy and terminal performance with Hornady's Precision Hunter factory-loaded ammunition.Engineered for the most demanding hunting situations, this .308 Winchester load features the revolutionary 178 grain ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag - eXpanding) bullet. The ELD-X bullet is designed for maximum ballistic potential, featuring a patented Heat Shield® tip that resists aerodynamic heating, ensuring it retains its shape for the highest-in-class ballistic coefficient throughout its flight path. This results in match-grade accuracy for hunting. At conventional ranges (0-400 yards), the bullet continually expands, while the thick jacket shank and high InterLock® ring ensure the core and jacket stay together, providing 50-60% weight retention for devastating penetration. For extended range shots (400+ yards), the Heat Shield tip drives back into the bullet, initiating controlled expansion and creating a large mushroom for deep penetration and large wound cavities, with 85-90% weight retention. Loaded with clean-burning propellants for consistent shot-to-shot results regardless of temperature, this ammunition is the ideal choice for hunting medium to large game like deer and elk. Trust Hornady Precision Hunter to deliver unparalleled performance when your trophy is on the line. Take your hunt to the next level with ammunition designed for ultimate accuracy and deadly dependability, available at Xhunter Australia.
