Accuracy and terminal performance are the cornerstones of Hornady® Precision Hunter™

Accuracy and terminal performance are the cornerstones of Hornady® Precision Hunter™ factory loaded ammunition especially notable in the 6.5 Creedmoor Precision Hunter™ line. Great care has been given by Hornady® engineers to develop superior match-accurate hunting loads such as the Hornady 143 gr ELD-X bullet that allow the ELD-X™ bullet to achieve its maximum ballistic potential. Specifically the Hornady ELD-X or more precisely the Hornady 143 gr ELD-X has been meticulously crafted for top-notch performance. Propellants used in the Precision Hunter™ ammunition line including the Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor Precision Hunter™ 143 grain ammo are clean burning and loaded to uniform capacity for consistent shot-to-shot results regardless of temperature. This attention to detail provides the highest levels of accuracy and performance uniformity for the most demanding and diverse hunting situations whether you're using the 6.5 Creedmoor ELD-X or other calibers.

Featuring the radically superior ELD-X™ bullet with patent-pending Heat Shield™ tip Precision Hunter™ particularly the Hornady Precision Hunter 6.5 is the ideal load for ANY hunting situation because of its effective terminal performance at ALL practical ranges.

Features:

Best-in-class BCs – Verified by Doppler radar the Heat Shield™ tip defies the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to maintain the highest in-class BC over its entire trajectory a signature feature of the Hornady 143 gr ELD-X bullets.

Match accurate hunting bullet – Streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design + highly concentric AMP® bullet jackets + patent pending Heat Shield™ tip combine for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency epitomized by the Hornady 143 gr ELD-X.

Devastating conventional range performance – With high velocity 0-400 yard impact the bullet continually expands throughout its penetration path. The thick shank of the jacket and high Interlock® ring keep the core and jacket together providing 50-60% weight retention.

Best extended range terminal performance available – Upon low velocity 400+ yard impacts the Heat Shield™ tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion. Exhibiting expansion with a large mushroom and 85-90% retained weight the bullet provides deep penetration and large cavities. Available as component bullets or in factory-loaded Precision Hunter™ ammunition including the sought-after Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor Precision Hunter™ 143 grain ammo.
