The Hornady 85578 Precision Hunter 7mm-08 Rem 150 GR ELD-X ammunition is engineered for hunters who demand superior performance in the field. Featuring the advanced ELD-X® (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) bullet, this ammunition delivers match-grade accuracy and lethal terminal performance at both short and extended ranges.
The ELD-X bullet incorporates a Heat Shield® tip, which resists aerodynamic heating and maintains its shape during flight. This ensures consistent ballistic coefficients and flat trajectories, crucial for accurate long-range shots. The bullet’s secant ogive profile, boattail design, and optimum bearing surface contribute to its exceptional stability and precision.
Upon impact, the ELD-X bullet offers controlled expansion and deep penetration. Its InterLock® ring keeps the core and jacket securely bonded, resulting in massive wound channels and effective energy transfer. This makes it ideal for hunting medium to large game such as deer, elk, and moose.
Packaged in a 20-round box, Hornady’s Precision Hunter ammunition combines cutting-edge ballistic technology with field-proven reliability, providing hunters with the confidence needed for successful hunts.
