Hornady's new bullets and ammunition loads for 2016
SHOT Show 2016 – Hornady introduces ELD-X and ELD-M, two new bullet designs in several different calibers, also available in a number of commercial loads from the same manufacturer.
The new Hornady Precision Hunter ammunition feature the new ELD-X™ bullet with the new Heat Shield™ tip. The Precision Hunter cartridge is the ideal load for ANY hunting situation because of its effective terminal performance at ALL practical ranges.
The Hornady ammunition company has designed the Heat Shield Tip, a new polymer bullet tip manufactured out of a new synthetic blend that will resist aerodynamic heating, offering optimal performances with consistent results from lot to lot, particularly in high ballistic coefficient loads.

The ELD-X bullet is loaded in the new Hornady Precision Hunter ammunition line, available in eight popular hunting calibers, from 6,5 Creedmore to 30-378 Weatherby Magnum, with weights ranging from 143 to 220 grains, providing ultra-effective terminal performance at all practical hunting ranges.
