The Hornady CX Bullets .30 Caliber .308 165 Grain Copper alloy eXpanding round represents a monolithic hunting bullet engineered for extended-range performance and consistent accuracy. Built as a one-piece copper alloy construction, the CX bullet resists core-jacket separation and delivers deep penetration with 95% weight retention—critical factors for hunters pursuing medium to large game at variable distances.
The 165-grain weight in .308 diameter strikes a balance between velocity and momentum, making it suitable for .30-06 Springfield, .308 Winchester, and similar .30 caliber rifle platforms. Hornady's Heat Shield Tip improves aerodynamics and protects the bullet's nose from deformation during high-velocity flight, contributing to flatter trajectories and tighter shot groups at extended ranges. The monolithic copper design eliminates traditional lead-core fragmentation, resulting in more predictable expansion and deeper wound channels in game animals.
This 50-box quantity is ideal for hunters who reload their own ammunition or who want to test the CX platform before committing to full case purchases. Serious rifle hunters reloading for .30-06 or .308 Winchester will find the 165-grain CX a versatile option across whitetail, mule deer, and similar medium-game applications. The monolithic construction also appeals to hunters seeking non-traditional ammunition in regions with specific lead-free hunting regulations.
