Hornady Precision Hunter 6.5 PRC Eld X 143 Grain 20 Rounds

The Hornady Precision Hunter 6.5 PRC 143 gr ELD?X cartridge in the Precision Hunter series delivers match-accurate hunting performance with a high ballistic coefficient verified by Doppler radar and a patent?pending Heat Shield tip that maintains shape and BC across the trajectory, making this load ideal for mountain hunters, long?range shots and conventional short?range engagements alike. With a 143?grain Extremely Low Drag eXpanding (ELD?X) bullet, a muzzle velocity around 2960 fps and muzzle energy near 2782 ft—lbs, this round provides consistent terminal performance from point?blank out to extended ranges: high?velocity impacts inside roughly 400 yards produce controlled expansion with 50—60% weight retention for deep penetration, while lower?velocity impacts beyond that range initiate the Heat Shield tip to drive expansion and produce large mushrooms with 85—90% retained weight for excellent wound channels. The streamlined secant ogive, boattail profile and concentric AMP jackets yield match bullet consistency and repeatable accuracy, and the brass casing and US origin offer reliable feeding and extraction in hunting rifles chambered for 6.5 PRC. If you need a hunting round that balances long?range ballistics, devastating terminal effects and predictable shot?to?shot consistency, this Hornady Precision Hunter ELD?X load fits the bill.
