Hornady CX™ Bullet: Precision in the Pursuit
The Hornady CX™ (Copper alloy eXpanding) bullet stands at the forefront of monolithic hunting projectiles, embodying a harmonious balance between cutting-edge technology and reliability. Designed for those who demand excellence from their ammunition, this bullet offers unparalleled performance across extended ranges.
At its core is a one-piece copper alloy construction that ensures remarkable structural integrity. This design choice not only prevents separation upon impact but also guarantees devastating terminal effects with deep penetration and an impressive 95% weight retention. Such characteristics make it ideally suited for hunters seeking consistency when pursuing large game.
The inclusion of Hornady's Heat Shield® Tip elevates the CX™'s aerodynamic profile significantly. Crafted from heat-resistant polymer, this tip withstands aerodynamic heating to maintain a high ballistic coefficient throughout its trajectory. It further refines accuracy by providing a perfect meplat—ensuring uniformity from shot to shot.
Furthermore, optimum groove geometry enhances the aerodynamics while minimizing bearing surface contact and fouling within your firearm’s barrel—a feature particularly appreciated during extensive shooting sessions in varied conditions.
This nontraditional projectile complies fully with California regulations and suits other regions mandating alternative materials without compromising on performance or ethical considerations in hunting medium-sized to large game species.
The Verdict: The Hornady CX™ is more than just another bullet; it's an embodiment of precision engineering designed for serious hunters who understand that each component plays a vital role in achieving success afield.Features
