The Hornady Bullets 6.5mm .264 – 100gr ELD-VT represents a precision projectile engineered for long-range shooters, hunters, and tactical marksmen who demand repeatable accuracy at extended distances. ELD-VT designates Extremely Low Drag – Variable Target, a bullet architecture optimized for velocity retention and consistent ballistic performance across diverse environmental conditions. This 100-grain specification in 6.5mm caliber addresses the performance envelope of modern intermediate-range platforms, delivering the ballistic coefficient and aerodynamic stability required for 1,000+ yard applications.
The ELD-VT design features a secant ogive profile and Hornady's proprietary AMP (Advanced Manufacturing Process) jacket, which ensures uniform wall thickness and eliminates runout variables that degrade group consistency. The 100-grain weight in 6.5mm provides optimal sectional density for deep penetration on medium-to-large game while maintaining supersonic velocity beyond 1,000 yards in standard magnum loadings. Polymer tip construction initiates controlled expansion on impact while the boat-tail configuration reduces drag coefficient, translating to flatter trajectories and reduced wind drift—critical factors in variable field conditions where elevation and windage corrections compound over distance.
Law enforcement precision rifle teams and competitive long-range shooters benefit from the tight manufacturing tolerances inherent in Hornady ammunition components, enabling sub-MOA accuracy potential when loaded in quality brass with appropriate powders and primers. The 100ct case format—shipped 15 boxes per case—accommodates high-volume reloaders and shooters managing sustained training cycles or dedicated match seasons. Compatibility extends across all standard 6.5mm platforms including 6.5 Creedmoor, .260 Remington, and 6.5×55 Swedish applications, provided handloads or factory ammunition follow published load data and velocity specifications for safe firearm operation.
