The Hornady CX™ (Copper alloy eXpanding) bullet stands as a pinnacle of innovation in the realm of monolithic hunting projectiles. Designed with precision and purpose, it delivers remarkable performance for those who demand excellence from their ammunition.
This advanced bullet is crafted from a single piece of copper alloy, ensuring that it remains intact upon impact. This construction not only guarantees devastating terminal performance but also achieves deep penetration with an impressive 95% weight retention.
One standout feature is the Heat Shield® Tip. Made from heat-resistant polymer, this tip defies aerodynamic heating to maintain a high ballistic coefficient throughout its flight path. It ensures each bullet has a perfect meplat, promoting consistency both shot-to-shot and lot-to-lot.
The CX™'s optimized groove geometry further enhances its aerodynamic capabilities while minimizing bearing surface contact and fouling within the barrel. This thoughtful design results in better accuracy over extended ranges—a crucial factor when pursuing game at distance.
A nontraditional option well-suited for large game hunting, the Hornady CX™ complies fully with California's regulations on lead-free ammunition and meets requirements in other regions mandating such bullets. Whether you're targeting medium-sized or larger quarry, this projectile provides reliability where it counts most: in the field.
Features
