Hornady 22 Creedmoor 80gr ELD Match 20rd Rifle Ammo 83411

Hornady 22 Creedmoor 80gr ELD Match is a centerfire rifle cartridge engineered for long-range precision shooting, specifically in competitive and high-accuracy environments. A common friction point in .22 caliber high-velocity projectiles is ballistic inconsistency caused by tip deformation under aerodynamic heating, which alters drag profiles mid-flight. This load resolves that issue through Heat Shield® tip construction that maintains a uniform meplat geometry for stable ballistic performance.

The technical advantage lies in maintaining a consistent ballistic coefficient across the projectile’s entire flight path. Standard polymer tips can soften at high velocities, introducing drag variability and vertical dispersion at extended distances. By preserving tip integrity and combining it with concentric brass construction and controlled propellant burn rates, this cartridge minimizes standard deviation and ensures repeatable external ballistics.

At 3,285 FPS, the 80gr ELD Match projectile leverages a Heat Shield® tip and high-ogive boattail profile to maintain a .485 G1 BC, reducing drag and wind drift while preserving velocity. Combined with uniform brass case geometry, it delivers consistent ignition and stable trajectories beyond 1,000 yards.

Key Benefits

• Aerodynamic Stability: Heat Shield® Tip and thermally stable polymer resist aerodynamic deformation for consistent ballistic coefficient and reduced vertical spread.
• Long-Range Precision: 80gr ELD Match Bullet and high-ogive boattail design reduce wind drift and extend supersonic range.
• Trajectory Performance: 3,285 FPS muzzle velocity and optimized propellant burn curve result in a flatter trajectory and faster time-on-target.
• Consistency: Concentric brass cases with uniform neck tension and internal volume ensure low standard deviation and repeatable shot placement.
