Step up your game in hunting with the Hornady Precision Hunter 30-06 Springfield 178 Grain ELD-X Ammo. Tailored for medium to large game hunting, this rifle ammunition magnifies your shooting accuracy with its aerodynamically efficient design. The Heat Shield tip, verified by Doppler radar, maintains its shape despite aerodynamic heating, ensuring superior BC over the complete trajectory. On low velocity, long-distance impacts, the tip initiates controlled expansion, providing deep penetration and large cavities. At high velocity, short-range impacts, the bullet continually expands while retaining 50-60% of its weight.
Features
- Ideal for medium and large game hunting
- Streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design + highly concentric AMP bullet jackets + Heat Shield tip combine for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.
- Upon low velocity, 400+ yard impacts, the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion. Exhibiting controlled expansion with a large mushroom and 85–90% retained weight, the bullet provides deep penetration and large cavities. Available as component bullets or in factory loaded Precision Hunter ammunition.
- Verified by Doppler radar, the Heat Shield tip defies the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to maintain the highest-in–class BC over its entire trajectory.
- With high velocity, 0–400 yard impact, the bullet continually expands throughout its penetration path. The thick shank of the jacket and high InterLock ring keep the core and jacket together providing 50–60% weight retention.
