Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the ELD-X bullet different from standard hunting bullets?
The ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) bullet features Hornady's proprietary Heat Shield tip, which resists aerodynamic heating that can deform conventional polymer tips during flight. This maintains a consistently high ballistic coefficient from muzzle to target. Combined with a carefully designed jacket and Interlock ring, the ELD-X delivers reliable, controlled expansion across a wide range of impact velocities — making it lethal at both close range and extended distances beyond 400 yards.
Is 7mm-08 Remington with a 150 grain ELD-X suitable for elk?
Yes, the 7mm-08 Remington loaded with a 150 grain ELD-X is a capable elk cartridge at ethical hunting distances, typically inside 300 yards. The ELD-X bullet's controlled expansion and high sectional density allow for deep penetration on heavy-bodied game. For larger elk or shots at longer distances, hunters may want to consider heavier-cartridge options, but many experienced hunters have cleanly taken elk with this load using proper shot placement.
How should I store this ammunition to maintain its performance?
Store Hornady Precision Hunter ammunition in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, and humidity. Keep rounds in their original box or an airtight container to prevent moisture exposure. Properly stored factory ammunition can remain reliable for decades. Avoid storing ammunition near solvents, fuels, or chemicals that could degrade the brass casing or primer.
