The ELD-X\u00ae (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) bullet is a technologically advanced, match accurate, ALL-RANGE hunting bullet featuring highest-in-class ballistic coefficients and consistent, controlled expansion at ALL practical hunting distances.<\/p>\n

Best-in-class BCs<\/p>\n

Verified by Doppler radar, the Heat Shield\u00ae tip is immune to the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to maintain the highest-in-class BC over its entire trajectory.<\/p>\n

Match accurate hunting bullet<\/p>\n

Streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design + highly concentric AMP\u00ae bullet jackets + Heat Shield\u00ae tip combine for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.<\/p>\n

ELD-X bullets are available in factory loaded Precision Hunter ammunition .<\/p>\n

Devastating conventional range performance<\/p>\n

With high velocity 0-400 yard impact, the bullet continually expands throughout its penetration path. The thick shank of the jacket and high InterLock\u00ae ring keep the core and jacket together providing 50-60% weight retention.<\/p>\n

Best extended range terminal performance available<\/p>\n

Upon low-velocity 400+ yard impacts, the Heat Shield\u00ae tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion. Exhibiting conventional expansion with a large mushroom and 85-90% retained weight the bullet provides deep penetration and large wound cavities.<\/p>\n
