Do you want to hunt varmints using your .300 PRC rifle? That’s not overkill. That’s over*thrill*, and precisely what Hornady V-Match ammo’s lightweight bullets are meant for!
This round’s bullet is a lot more than 174 grains. That’s not to say it weighs more, but that the ELD-VT is one of Hornady’s most impressive feats of ballistic engineering to date. It starts with a Heat Shield tip, which is made of polymer that doesn’t warp under heat, and has a specially designed flat meplat that minimizes dispersion all around the bullet. The Heat Shield transitions to an Advanced Manufacturing Process (AMP) jacket, which is drawn extra concentric, and ends in a graceful boat tail. The ELD-VT’s length and core distribution are also optimized for peak aerodynamic performance – yet another reason why the 0.573 G1 BC bullet can be trusted to retain around 74% velocity at 500 yards.
The ELD-VT is a flat flyer, no doubt about it, but that’s only the first of varmints’ worries. Its Heat Shield’s position over a large air gap causes the ELD-VT to smash apart as it widens out. A little shrapnel bomb that you can easily spot from uprange!
