Choice Ammunition 7mm PRC 175gr ELD-X

This premium hand-loaded ammunition is built around the highly advanced Hornady ELD-X® (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) bullet, delivering exceptional long-range accuracy and devastating terminal performance across a wide range of hunting distances. Designed for serious hunters who demand match-grade precision and dependable expansion, this load combines premium hand-loaded consistency with proven field performance.

At the center of the ELD-X® bullet is Hornady’s patented Heat Shield® tip, engineered to resist deformation caused by aerodynamic heating during flight. Unlike conventional polymer tips that can soften and lose shape at extended distances, the Heat Shield® tip maintains a perfectly consistent meplat, preserving ballistic coefficient and maximizing long-range accuracy.

The bullet’s streamlined secant ogive profile, optimized boattail design, and highly concentric AMP® bullet jackets work together to create a supremely accurate, high-ballistic-coefficient projectile with excellent wind resistance and exceptional downrange consistency. Hornady verifies ELD-X® ballistic coefficients using Doppler radar and corrects them to standard atmospheric conditions for true real-world performance.

Terminal performance is equally impressive at both conventional and extended hunting distances.

At higher impact velocities from approximately 0–400 yards, the ELD-X® bullet delivers rapid and continuous expansion throughout the penetration path. The thick rear jacket shank and InterLock® ring help retain the core and jacket together, typically providing 50–60% retained weight for deep penetration and devastating energy transfer.

At extended distances beyond 400 yards where impact velocities are lower, the Heat Shield® tip is driven rearward into the bullet to initiate controlled expansion. This produces a large mushroom profile with 85–90% retained weight, allowing for deep penetration and significant wound cavities on game animals.
