Hornady 3077 ELD-X .308 212 Grain Ballistic Tip, 100 Count

The Hornady ELD-X .30 Caliber, .308" Diameter, 212 Grain bullet represents a pinnacle of modern ammunition technology. This offering is designed for hunters who demand precision and performance across all ranges. At its core, the ELD-X bullet incorporates several groundbreaking features that set it apart from conventional hunting bullets.

One of the standout innovations in this design is the Heat Shield™ tip. Unlike traditional polymer tips that can deform due to aerodynamic heating during flight, Hornady's engineering team developed a heat-resistant polymer solution. This ensures that the Heat Shield tip maintains its shape and size throughout its trajectory, thereby preserving ballistic coefficients (BC) at their highest class levels as verified by Doppler radar.

This projectile boasts a streamlined secant ogive profile coupled with an optimum boattail design and highly concentric AMP™ jackets. These elements work in concert to deliver superior aerodynamic efficiency unmatched in today's market.

The terminal performance of the ELD-X is equally impressive across varying distances. Within 0-400 yards, high velocity impact causes continuous expansion along its penetration path. The thin nose section peels back upon contact until reaching the thick shank where Hornady’s InterLock® ring ensures core-jacket cohesion — retaining between 50-60% weight for devastating lethality.

At extended ranges beyond 400 yards, when velocity decreases significantly, this bullet remains formidable thanks to intelligent design features like backward-driving Heat Shield tips which initiate controlled expansion resulting in large mushroom formations while maintaining up to 85-90% retained weight—ensuring deep penetration capabilities alongside substantial wound cavities.

Whether you are engaged in competitive shooting or pursuing game at various distances under diverse conditions—the versatility offered by these match-grade components speaks volumes about their utility value both as standalone projectiles available through component purchases or pre-loaded into Precision Hunter™ factory ammunition options tailored specifically toward maximizing your success out there on field expeditions!

If you're seeking ammunition engineered not just for accuracy but also exceptional terminal results over comprehensive engagement scenarios—Hornady’s commitment towards quality innovation shines brightly within every box containing these meticulously crafted rounds ready now awaiting deployment into action-packed endeavors ahead!
