Product Information

The ELD-X® (Extremely Low Drag - eXpanding) bullet is a technologically advanced, match accurate, ALL-RANGE hunting bullet featuring highest-in-class ballistic coefficients and consistent, controlled expansion at ALL practical hunting distances.

  • BEST-IN-CLASS BCS:  Verified by Doppler radar, the Heat Shield® tip is immune to the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to maintain the highest-in-class BC over its entire trajectory.
  • MATCH ACCURATE HUNTING BULLET:  Streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design + highly concentric AMP® bullet jackets + Heat Shield® tip combine for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.
  • DEVASTATING CONVENTIONAL RANGE PERFORMANCE:  With high velocity 0-400 yard impact, the bullet continually expands throughout its penetration path. The thick shank of the jacket and high InterLock® ring keep the core and jacket together providing 50-60% weight retention.
  • BEST EXTENDED RANGE TERMINAL PERFORMANCE AVAILABLE:  Upon low-velocity 400+ yard impacts, the Heat Shield® tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion. Exhibiting conventional expansion with a large mushroom and 85-90% retained weight the bullet provides deep penetration and large wound cavities.

This is not loaded ammunition.

178 gr ELD-X

By MAJ (Ret) Joshua S. on Aug 21, 2023
Reloaded these rounds for dual purpose: long range M1 Garand Match ammo as well as hunting. Tips will not become damaged as long as rounds are loaded to proper COAL as listed in manual. Smooth feeding and amazing results so far at 600m. Velocity kept within 30 fps of legacy M72 match loadings to achieve.

Should make for a nice 200-400 yd whitetail bullet as well.

Awesome on deer 🦌

This bullet’s accuracy and performance on deer is great leaving an impressive wound and blood trail out of my 30/06 !!!

Hornady .30 178 ELD X

I have been searching for a 180 replacement for the Nosler BT due to the cost of the Noslers, don't get me wrong here , Nosler makes a very fine bullet . just needing something a little less expensive, So far my test results in the 300 W Mag are very promising with XX.Xgr of IMR4831.Accuracy is very good , will see how well they perform this fall on some White tail .

Great bullet, better shipping

By Colter P. on Nov 23, 2022
Hard to find bullet, Grafs got it to me quickly, and easily. I love the long range performance of the round, they work as advertised.
