Hornady ELD Match Bullets with Heat Shield .30 cal .308" 195 gr ELD MATCH 100/box

Hornady ELD Match Bullets with Heat Shield .30 cal .308" 195 gr ELD MATCH are precision rifle projectiles engineered for competitive shooters, long-range hunters, and reloaders who demand consistency and ballistic excellence. These bullets represent the pinnacle of match-grade ammunition component technology, designed specifically for shooters competing in PRS, NRL, and other precision rifle disciplines where accuracy and wind deflection performance determine success. Each box contains 100 rounds, providing sufficient inventory for serious load development, practice sessions, and competition preparation.

The 195-grain ELD Match bullet incorporates Hornady's proprietary Heat Shield tip, a polymer insert that provides aerodynamic stability and minimizes heat-related velocity variations during extended shooting strings. The secant ogive design reduces drag coefficient across the transonic and supersonic flight envelope, delivering superior ballistic coefficients compared to traditional match bullets in the same weight class. The boat-tail configuration enhances downrange velocity retention, critical for maintaining supersonic flight and reducing wind drift in crosswind conditions. Precision manufacturing tolerances ensure bullet-to-bullet consistency in weight and concentricity, essential for tight velocity spreads and predictable point-of-impact shifts between shots.

This 195-grain projectile optimally serves reloaders working with .308 Winchester, .300 Win Mag, and other .30 caliber rifle platforms where extended-range performance justifies the heavier bullet weight. Competitors using AI AX chassis rifles, Remington 700 platforms, and custom precision builds will find these bullets deliver the ballistic predictability required for consistent hits beyond 600 yards. Handloaders appreciate the precise dimensional control, which simplifies load development and allows velocity optimization without sacrificing accuracy. Compatibility spans standard .308" diameter sizing requirements; verify your firearm's twist rate (1:10" recommended minimum) supports stable 195-grain bullet flight before committing to large quantity purchases.
