20 Rounds of .308 Win Ammo by Armscor USA - 178gr ELD-X

There are tons of great .30 caliber hunting bullets – more than those of any other caliber on the market, in fact. But when you’re harnessing the trusty old 308 Win, wouldn’t you most like to count on one of the most popular and versatile hunting bullets of all time?

We hope you answered “You know it, bub,” because we’d really like to send you this ELD-X ammunition by Armscor. The Montana manufacturer selected Hornady’s polymer-tipped powerhouse because it is intensely accurate – a veritable 0.278 G7 BC missile, which combines a Heat Shield tip, Advanced Manufacturing Process jacket, secant ogive external geometry, uniformly distributed lead core, and boat tail in the name of warding off wind interference, standardizing trajectory, and delivering the most kinetic energy to the quarry as possible.

The “X” in “ELD-X” stands for “eXpanding.” Hornady may take liberties when it comes to capitalizing words, but their understanding of terminal ballistics is profound. They designed the ELD-X to dependably trigger expansion at distances well beyond 400 yards, at which range the bullet also conserves no less than 85% of its mass. Closer-range impact is no hurdle to the ELD-X, which uses its InterLock ring to ensure core/jacket separation removes no more than half of its mass.
