In the realm of hunting ammunition, precision and performance are paramount. The Hornady CX™ (Copper alloy eXpanding) bullet stands as a testament to this principle, offering hunters an unparalleled tool in their pursuit of game. This monolithic bullet is crafted from a single piece of copper alloy, ensuring that it maintains its integrity upon impact. Such construction guarantees deep penetration and remarkable terminal performance while retaining 95% of its weight.
The ingenuity behind the CX™ lies not only in its material but also in its design features. At the forefront is the Heat Shield® Tip, composed of a heat-resistant polymer that withstands aerodynamic heating. This ensures that each shot maintains a high ballistic coefficient throughout its entire flight path, providing consistent accuracy from one round to another.
A closer examination reveals optimized groove geometry on the bullet's surface. These grooves serve dual purposes: maximizing aerodynamic efficiency and minimizing fouling within your firearm’s barrel—a notable advantage for those who value both performance and maintenance ease.
For hunters operating under nontraditional regulations or pursuing large game across diverse terrains, Hornady's CX™ offers compliance without compromise—fully California compatible yet versatile enough for medium to large-sized quarry worldwide.
