Carefully selected components

We carefully select every component to ensure uniformity, then load to exacting specifications to provide pinpoint accuracy. Each cartridge is loaded with either Hornady ELD Match, A-MAX, or our high-performance boat-tail hollow point bullets. Stringent quality control ensures proper bullet seating, consistent charges and pressures, optimal velocity and repeatable accuracy.

Specially Selected Cases

Cases are hand selected based on strict criteria: wall thickness uniformity, internal capacity, case weight and consistent wall concentricity. We get proper bullet seating, consistent charges and pressures, optimal velocity and repeatable accuracy.

AMP® (Advanced Manufacturing Process) Bullet Jackets

These jackets represent a technological advancement in design, tooling and manufacturing. Developed by Hornady technicians, AMP Bullet Jackets feature near-zero wall thickness variation, resulting in unprecedented concentricity and uniformity throughout the jacket.

Powder

Powder is matched carefully to each specific load for optimal pressure, velocity and consistent accuracy.

Primers

Like the powder, the primers we select are the highest quality available, perfectly matched to the load.

Notes From Ballistician Wade Chandler

Through our testing we have seen the 108 gr eldm perform well on whitetail and hog sized game. While it works well for long range plinking, it does suffer slightly from temp sensitivity. You will experience a great deal of blow back when running this ammo in traditional suppressors. It's definitely more at home in longer gas systems. Performs well in 1:7 and 1:7.5 twist rate barrels.

We sit down and chronographed  this offering a couple times through several barrel length offerings, then averaged out the velocities. Each velocity number provided is a result of those test and the average of 3 separate test. That said, we still recommend getting a chronograph and testing in your own time to collect your very own velocity data. However, you can take these velocities and tune from here on your ballistics app.

 

Testing Parameters

Each rifle has been properly broken in and testing was performed after a thorough cleaning and proper fouling. 

Each velocity test was performed at the same barrel temp. 70 degrees.
