Product highlights
- To counter this effect Hornady identified a heat resistant polymer and developed the patent pending Heat Shield tip.
- This revolutionary new tip creates the perfect meplat (tip) with exceptionally consistent results from bullet-to-bullet and lot-to-lot.
- At conventional range (0-400 yards) the ELD-X bullet is designed to continually expand throughout its penetration path.
- The remaining heavy shank of the bullet continues to drive forward and expand for extremely lethal results.
- Upon contact at extended range (400 plus yards) the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the carefully designed nose cavity to begin the expansion process.
