Hornady ELD-M, .264 Diameter, 140 Grain, Ballistic Tip

Product Description

The Hornady ELD-M 6.5mm 140 grain bullet is engineered for serious reloaders pursuing long-range accuracy and performance. Additionally, this 100-count box contains premium projectiles manufactured to exacting tolerances. Therefore, you’ll achieve consistent, reliable results with minimal velocity variation across each round.

First, the ELD-M features Hornady’s Extremely Low Drag aerodynamic design. Moreover, the secant ogive shape and boat tail configuration minimize wind drift significantly. As a result, these bullets maintain exceptional velocity and energy downrange for extended-range shooting.

Key Features & Performance

The 6.5mm ELD-M offers approximately 0.656 ballistic coefficient in G1 terms. Furthermore, the copper alloy jacket ensures consistent expansion on game. Additionally, the ballistic tip construction reduces drag while stabilizing flight for pinpoint accuracy. Therefore, hunters pursuing ethical long-range shots will appreciate the performance benefits.

These bullets suit 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, and 260 Remington cartridges. Moreover, many other 6.5mm cartridges accommodate this 140 grain weight effectively. However, proper reloading practices and quality equipment are essential for optimal results.

Ideal for Precision and Competition

Precision rifle competitors rely on ELD-M bullets for consistent tournament performance. Similarly, long-range hunters trust this ammunition for accurate, ethical shots at extended distances. Indeed, reloaders appreciate the consistent ballistic coefficient and drop values for load development.
