.284 | 180gr | Hornady ELD-Match
by Hornady · See details on brand website
The Hornady ELD-Match bullet features an extremely low drag, boat-tail design with a Heat Shield tip for maintained aerodynamic efficiency during flight. This bullet is not lead free; it has a traditional lead core encased in a copper jacket for excellent weight retention and accuracy. The ELD-Match is best suited for precision long-range shooting and competition rather than hunting, making it ideal for target shooters seeking unmatched ballistic consistency and performance.
