Hornady ELD-VT 22 Cal .224 69gr 1-8" Bullets (100/Box) 22772

The Hornady ELD-VT 22 Cal .224 69gr is a high-performance projectile designed to bridge the gap between low-drag match accuracy and explosive varmint fragmentation. It features a unique air gap between the polymer Heat Shield® tip and the lead core, which shifts the center of gravity rearward for enhanced aerodynamic stability and ultra-flat trajectories. Upon impact, this tip drives back into the core to cause immediate and dramatic fragmentation, even at lower velocities. With a high G1 ballistic coefficient of .424, this 69-grain bullet is specifically optimized for long-range precision and predator control. To achieve proper stabilization of its long, sleek profile, this bullet requires a rifle barrel with a fast twist rate of at least 1:8".
