Hornady 33210 ELD-X 338 Cal .338 230 gr Extremely Low Drag eXpanding 100 Per Box/ 15 Case, Reloating Bullets

Overview

The Hornady ELD-X .338 230-grain rifle bullet is an advanced, match-accurate hunting projectile engineered with high-in-class ballistic coefficients and consistent expansion across all practical distances. It features a patent-pending Heat Shield polymer tip that resists aerodynamic heating and prevents tip deformation, ensuring consistent meplat geometry and trajectory performance. Utilizing a streamlined secant ogive, optimum boattail design, and concentric AMP bullet jackets, the ELD-X delivers dependable terminal performance. At high-velocity impacts between 0 and 400 yards, the thick jacket shank and high Interlock ring retain 50 to 60 percent of the bullet's weight while it continually expands along the penetration path. At lower velocities beyond 400 yards, the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the core to initiate conventional expansion, producing a large mushroom with 85 to 90 percent retained weight for deep penetration and large wound cavities. Each box contains 100 bullets requiring a 1:12-inch twist rate.
