Precision Hunter™ Ammunition
Loaded with the most advanced all-range hunting bullet available, Precision Hunter™ sets a new standard of accurate, deadly and dependable hunting performance. Featuring the ELD-X™ bullet with patented Heat Shield™ tip, Precision Hunter™ is effective in any hunting situation because of its terminal performance at all practical ranges.
Propellants used in Precision Hunter™ ammunition are clean burning, consistent and exhibit excellent temperature stability. Cartridge cases are chosen for strength, consistent capacity and minimal run-out. Propellant and primer combinations are carefully selected to provide the most consistent shot-to-shot results possible regardless of temperature. This attention to detail provides the highest levels of accuracy and performance for the most demanding and diverse hunting situations.
Best-in-class BCs
Verified by Doppler radar, the Heat Shield™ tip defies the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to maintain the highest in-class BC over its entire trajectory.
Match accurate hunting bullet
Streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design + highly concentric AMP® bullet jackets + patent pending Heat Shield™ tip combine for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.
Devastating conventional range performance
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.
Best extended range terminal available
Upon low velocity, 400+ yard impacts, Heat Shield™ tip drives backward into bullet to initiate expansion. Exhibiting expansion with a large and 85-90% retained weight then provides deep penetration and large cavities. Available as component bullets or in factory loaded Precision Hunter™ ammunition.
