338 WIN MAG HORNADY PRECISION HUNTER 230 GRAIN ELD-X (20 ROUNDS)

338 WIN MAG HORNADY PRECISION HUNTER 230 GRAIN ELD-X (20 ROUNDS)

Ten bullets through one hole. That’s Hornady’s founding philosophy, and certainly one that the Extremely Low Drag - eXpanding bullet satisfies in full. But when you choose this Precision Hunter series 338 Win Mag round for taking deer or elk, you’ll only need to put one hole through your target to get the job done.

This round’s 230 grain bullet has all the Hornady hallmarks of accuracy, including a virtually perfectly concentric AMP jacket, sleek secant ogive jacket geometry, and an optimally angled boat tail. The real magic lies in the ELD-X’s Heat Shield tip, which is made of heat-resistant polymer that presents a perfect meplat downrange in spite of fierce aerodynamic heating. 0.310 G1 BC; 0.616 G7 BC!

The ELD-X also features Hornady’s own InterLock ring. It keeps the jacket and core mechanically bound together to ensure at least 50% weight retention during high-velocity impact. Beyond 400 yards, the ELD-X’s weight retention becomes closer to 90%. The Heat Shield tip continues to work after impact as it drives into the tapered jacket and dense lead core to commence wide, rapid and thoroughly deadly expansion. Brass-cased, reloadable and American-made – truly a round for precision hunters such as yourself!
