Hornady engineers discovered that conventional bullet tip materials in streamlined, high BC bullets melt and deform. Although not a significant issue affecting moderate BC conventional tipped varmint and hunting bullets, aerodynamic heating causes BC reduction and degradation of accuracy, particularly at extended ranges (400 yds +). To counter this effect, Hornady identified a heat resistant polymer and developed the patent pending Heat Shield tip. This revolutionary new tip creates the perfect meplat (tip) with exceptionally consistent results from bullet-to-bullet and lot-to-lot.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Heat Shield tip defies the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to provide a perfect meplat (tip) that is always the same shape.  A streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design, plus the highly concentric AMP bullet jackets, combined with the patent pending Heat Shield tip creates a supremely accurate, high BC match bullet.  ELD-Match bullet BCs are measured with Doppler radar and corrected to standard atmospheric conditions. 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. 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. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeatures:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Heat Shield Tip forms the perfect meplat\u003cbr\u003e- No tip deformation from aerodynamic heating\u003cbr\u003e- Match accurate hunting bullet\u003cbr\u003e- Devastating terminal performance at all ranges\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecifications:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Caliber: .338 Caliber (0.338\" Diameter)\u003cbr\u003e- Bullet Weight: 270 Grains\u003cbr\u003e- Bullet Style: Polymer Tip Boat Tail (BT)\u003cbr\u003e- Lead Free: No\u003cbr\u003e- Cannelure: No\u003cbr\u003e- Bullet Coating: Non-Coated\u003cbr\u003e- Quantity: Per 50\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBallistic Information:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Ballistic Coefficient: 0.381\u003cbr\u003e- Sectional Density: 0.338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNote:  These are component bullets, not loaded ammunition","brand":"Hornady","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":22110116937807,"sku":"328187","price":55.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7861\/9727\/products\/GS328187.jpg?v=1555716436","url":"https:\/\/green-supply3.myshopify.com\/products\/338-cal-338-270-gr-eld-x","provider":"Green Supply3","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
