The Hornady CX™ (Copper alloy eXpanding) bullet stands as a testament to the pinnacle of modern ammunition design. Crafted by Hornady, this monolithic hunting bullet is engineered for those who demand nothing but the best in their pursuit of game.
At its core, the CX™ bullet is constructed from a single piece of copper alloy. This ensures that it remains intact upon impact, delivering devastating terminal performance with deep penetration. Remarkably, it retains 95% of its weight even after hitting tough targets, ensuring reliability and consistency when you need it most.
The innovative Heat Shield® Tip sets the CX™ apart by using a heat-resistant polymer designed to withstand aerodynamic heating during flight. This feature maintains a high ballistic coefficient throughout its trajectory. The Heat Shield® also guarantees an impeccable meplat (tip), contributing to unrivaled accuracy shot after shot.
With optimized groove geometry, the CX™ bullet reduces both bearing surface friction and fouling while maximizing aerodynamic efficiency. These grooves ensure that each round flies true to its target with minimal deviation.
This nontraditional projectile offers hunters an exceptional option for medium-sized to large game across various terrains and conditions. Fully compliant with California's regulations on lead-free ammunition, the Hornady CX™ serves as an excellent choice wherever alternative bullets are required or preferred.
If your quest involves precision at extended ranges combined with uncompromising power—whether you're stalking whitetail or pursuing elk—the Hornady CX™ provides confidence in every cartridge fired.
