Hornady Precision Hunter .270 WSM 145gr ELD-X
Factory-loaded hunting ammunition featuring Hornady's ELD-X bullet with Heat Shield tip. Delivers match-grade accuracy and devastating terminal performance from close range to extended distances.
Precision Hunter Ammunition
Hornady's Precision Hunter line represents the pinnacle of factory-loaded hunting ammunition, engineered for shooters who demand both accuracy and reliable terminal performance across all practical hunting ranges.
Superior Ballistics
The ELD-X bullet features best-in-class ballistic coefficients, verified by Doppler radar. The revolutionary Heat Shield tip maintains its shape throughout flight, defying aerodynamic heating to preserve the bullet's ballistic efficiency over the entire trajectory. This translates to flatter shooting, less wind drift, and more predictable impact points.
Match-Grade Accuracy
Hornady's engineers have developed these loads to exacting standards:
- Streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design
- Highly concentric AMP bullet jackets for concentricity
- Clean-burning propellants loaded to uniform capacity
- Consistent shot-to-shot performance regardless of temperature
Terminal Performance
The ELD-X bullet delivers devastating results across the full spectrum of hunting scenarios:
Close Range (0-400 yards): High-velocity impact initiates rapid, controlled expansion. The thick jacket shank and Interlock ring keep the core and jacket together, providing 50-60% weight retention for deep penetration.
Extended Range (400+ yards): At lower velocities, the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion. The result is a large mushroom with 85-90% weight retention, ensuring deep penetration and large wound cavities.
This ammunition is ideal for any hunting situation where precision and reliable performance matter.
