Product Overview
The Hornady ELD Match Bullets in 30 caliber .308 with a weight of 168 grains are engineered for exceptional accuracy and consistency in long-range shooting applications. Featuring the innovative Heat Shield tip, these bullets are immune to aerodynamic heating effects, ensuring the tip retains its shape for optimal aerodynamics and uniform meplat formation. The streamlined secant ogive combined with a highly concentric AMP bullet jacket and a precision-engineered Heat Shield tip result in a high ballistic coefficient (BC), which enhances stability and reduces drag over extended distances. BC values are accurately measured with Doppler radar and adjusted to standard atmospheric conditions, providing confidence in their performance for precision shooting and competitive applications. These bullets outperform traditional boat-tail hollow point (BTHP) designs, delivering superior consistency and accuracy on the range or in the field. Designed specifically for precision rifles, the Hornady ELD Match bullets are suitable for target shooting, competitive events, or tactical applications where accuracy is paramount. They are available in a variety of sizes, but the 168-grain .308 caliber version offers an ideal balance of velocity, stability, and terminal performance. Constructed with lead components and featuring Hornady's advanced manufacturing processes, these bullets are intended for dedicated shooters who demand the highest levels of performance from their ammunition.
Please note that these bullets are subject to Prop 65 regulations, containing lead and chemicals that may cause health concerns. Proper handling and safety precautions are advised. Ensure your firearm's chamber and rifling are compatible with these match-grade projectiles for optimal results.
