Hornady 280 Ackley Imp 162gr ELD-X Precision Hunter Rifle Ammunition

Hornady Precision Hunter centerfire rifle ammunition is engineered to provide match-grade accuracy paired with maximum terminal performance. Loaded with the advanced ELD-X bullet featuring a patented Heat Shield tip, this cartridge maintains high aerodynamic efficiency and ballistic consistency across varied hunting distances.

Specially formulated clean-burning propellants ensure uniform internal ballistics and consistent velocities across extreme temperature fluctuations. The optimized secant ogive profile, concentric AMP jacket, and boat tail base combine to maximize trajectory stability and wind drift resistance in challenging environments.

Terminal performance remains highly effective from close range out to extended distances. High-velocity impacts initiate sustained expansion backed by an InterLock ring for reliable weight retention, while lower-velocity long-range impacts yield deep penetration and wide wound channels.
