7MM .284 175 GR ELD-X

The 7MM .284 175 GR ELD-X bullet by Hornady Mfg is engineered for professional hunting applications requiring precision and reliable terminal performance across varied distances. It incorporates a patent-pending Heat Shield tip made from a heat-resistant polymer that maintains aerodynamic integrity by resisting melting and deformation during flight, a common issue with conventional polymer tips in high ballistic coefficient bullets.

This bullet is optimized for controlled expansion and deep penetration, adapting its expansion behavior based on impact velocity. At typical hunting ranges up to 400 yards, the bullet's thin nose peels back to initiate expansion, while the InterLock ring secures the core and jacket for structural integrity. Beyond 400 yards, the Heat Shield tip triggers expansion within the nose cavity, producing a large mushroom effect and retaining weight for effective lethality at extended ranges.
