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. As one of the most advanced monolithic bullets available today, it offers hunters both power and precision in equal measure.
The core strength of the Hornady CX™ lies in its construction. Forged from a single piece of copper alloy, this bullet ensures that separation is not an option during impact—delivering devastating terminal performance with deep penetration. With 95% weight retention, you can trust that what you aim for will be thoroughly impacted.
An innovative feature on this projectile is the Heat Shield® Tip. Crafted from heat-resistant polymer, it resists aerodynamic heating while maintaining a consistently high ballistic coefficient throughout its flight path. This tip design guarantees perfect alignment every time—ensuring consistency from bullet-to-bullet and lot-to-lot.
Aerodynamics have been refined further through Optimum Groove Geometry. These grooves maximize performance by reducing bearing surface contact and minimizing fouling within your barrel—a crucial factor when accuracy matters most.
For those seeking nontraditional options suitable for large game hunts or areas mandating such choices like California, the Hornady CX™ provides an excellent solution without compromise on efficacy or legality—from medium-size targets all the way up to formidable big game adversaries.
