Hornady 6mm Creedmoor 103 ELD-X

Hornady Precision Hunter® ammunition is built around two essential principles — exceptional accuracy and devastating terminal performance. Engineered for hunters who demand reliable results in the most challenging environments, Precision Hunter ammunition combines premium components, advanced bullet technology, and meticulous quality control to deliver match-grade precision and lethal downrange effectiveness.

At the center of the Precision Hunter® line is the revolutionary Hornady ELD-X® (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) bullet. Hornady engineers carefully developed these factory loads to maximize the ballistic performance of the ELD-X® projectile, providing superior aerodynamic efficiency, excellent consistency, and dependable terminal performance at both conventional and extended hunting distances.

Precision Hunter® ammunition utilizes clean-burning propellants loaded to uniform capacity to ensure consistent shot-to-shot velocities regardless of temperature or environmental conditions. This level of consistency delivers outstanding accuracy and dependable field performance for serious hunters pursuing game in diverse conditions.

Terminal Performance:

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

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

Made in the United States of America.
