.270 Win. Hornady ELD-X 145gr/9,4g

Hornady .270 Win ELD-X Precision Hunter 145 gr is a hunting cartridge from the Precision Hunter® line, loaded with the ELD-X® (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) bullet. According to the manufacturer, accuracy and terminal performance are the cornerstones of this line – the loads allow the ELD-X bullet to reach its full ballistic potential at conventional and extended hunting ranges.

Key features

• ELD-X® bullet with Heat Shield® tip that retains its shape and therefore its ballistic coefficient throughout the flight
