Hornady Match 30-06 168gr Eld - M1 Garand 20rd 10bx/cs

The Hornady Match 30-06 168gr ELD M1 Garand ammunition represents precision engineering purpose-built for shooters who demand accuracy from America's most iconic battle rifle. This 20-round box is formulated to function reliably in the M1 Garand's unique operating system while delivering match-grade consistency that rivals dedicated target loads. Whether you're maintaining rifle marksmanship skills, competing in vintage military rifle competitions, or preserving the performance characteristics of a historical firearm, this ammunition bridges the gap between military heritage and modern ballistic precision.

Each cartridge features Hornady's ELD (Extremely Low Drag) bullet technology—a Match-grade projectile optimized for the 30-06 Springfield platform with a ballistic coefficient of .523, delivering consistent downrange performance and minimal wind deflection. The 168-grain bullet launches at 2710 feet per second, generating 2739 foot-pounds of muzzle energy—a velocity envelope specifically engineered to function through the M1 Garand's gas-operated system without accelerating wear on the receiver or gas cylinder. Hornady's strict quality control ensures case-to-case uniformity in primer pocket dimensions, powder charge tolerance, and bullet seating depth, translating to tight shot groupings and predictable trajectory across extended shooting sessions.

This ammunition is ideal for competitive shooters in M1 Garand-specific events, military history enthusiasts who shoot their rifles regularly, and precision marksmen who require reliable performance without resorting to hand-loaded rounds. The 20-round box configuration accommodates the Garand's eight-round en bloc clip capacity, allowing shooters to maintain convenient loading cycles without excess bulk. Each case of 10 boxes (200 rounds total) provides sufficient inventory for mid-range training sessions, competitive matches, or inventory for serious Garand operators who understand that ammunition performance directly impacts rifle reliability and shot placement consistency.
