Federal Premium 30-06 Springfield 178gr ELD-X Centerfire Rifle Ammunition

Specifications

Bullet Type

The Federal Premium 30-06 Springfield 178gr ELD-X Centerfire Rifle Ammunition features a unique polymer tip that resists deformation to achieve consistent ballistics and initiate extreme-range expansion. This tip helps maintain the bullet's aerodynamic shape and ensures consistent performance over long distances.

Grain

The bullet is 178 grains in weight, making it suitable for hunting and precision shooting applications. This grain weight ensures that the bullet has the necessary kinetic energy to penetrate deeply and retain its shape, providing a large mushroom and controlled expansion.

Caliber

The ammunition is designed for the 30-06 Springfield caliber, which is a popular choice for hunting and target shooting. The 30-06 Springfield is known for its versatility and effectiveness across various game species and ranges.

Bullet Velocity

The bullet velocity for this ammunition is high, allowing it to achieve impressive terminal performance. The high velocity ensures that the bullet expands consistently throughout its penetration path, providing deep penetration and large cavities.

Distance the Bullet Drop Starts

The bullet drop starts at a distance of approximately 400 yards. At this point, the bullet begins to lose velocity and start its descent, requiring slight adjustments to maintain accuracy. However, the design and construction of the ELD-X bullet ensure that it retains its terminal performance even at these extended ranges.

Additional Features

• Match-Accurate Hunting Bullet: The ELD-X bullet is designed to provide match-accurate performance, making it suitable for both hunting and target shooting applications. Its streamlined secant ogive with an optimum boat-tail design and highly concentric AMP bullet jackets ensure a radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.
• Heat Shield Tip: The Heat Shield tip on the ELD-X bullet helps maintain its shape and ballistic coefficient throughout its trajectory. This feature ensures that the bullet retains its aerodynamic properties even under extreme-range conditions, providing consistent performance and accuracy.
• Terminal Performance: The ELD-X bullet is designed for optimal terminal performance, expanding consistently throughout its penetration path. At low velocity, beyond 400 yards, the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion, creating a large mushroom and deep penetration.

Call to Action
