Specifications

Bullet Type

Extremely Low Drag eXpanding (ELD-X)

Grain Weight

145Gr

Caliber

270 Winchester

Velocity

Determining the exact velocity of this ammunition requires specific shooting conditions and detailed testing. However, Hornady Precision Hunter ammunition is designed for high velocity, which enhances its terminal performance and trajectory control.

Bullet Drop

The bullet drop of this ammunition starts at approximately 100 yards, where it begins to lose its trajectory height. This is a typical characteristic of rifle ammunition.

Features

The HRNDY PH 270WIN 145GR ELD-X is an exceptional hunting ammunition designed for precise and effective performance. Here are some key features that set it apart:

Aerodynamic Efficiency

The ELD-X bullet has a streamlined secant ogive with an optimum boattail design, highly concentric AMP bullet jackets, and a Heat Shield tip. These features combine to provide superior aerodynamic efficiency, enhancing the bullet's trajectory and energy retention.

Terminal Performance

The ELD-X bullet is designed for optimal terminal performance, expanding and penetrating effectively at all practical ranges. At high velocities, the bullet expands throughout its penetration path, retaining approximately 50-60% of its weight. At lower velocities, the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion, resulting in controlled expansion, a large mushroom, and 85-90% retained weight, providing deep penetration and large cavities.

Enhanced Accuracy

The ELD-X bullet's aerodynamic design and high-quality components ensure match-accurate hunting performance. This precision allows for effective and humane hunting across various hunting scenarios and terrain.

Durability

The thick shank of the bullet's jacket and high InterLock ring keep the core and jacket together, ensuring durability and consistent performance throughout the bullet's trajectory.
