Long live the Midwest! It is home to Federal Premium, which mints fantastic match-accurate 300 Winchester Short Magnum ammunition! It is also home to Hornady, which supplies Federal with the perfect bullets with which to load said 300 WSM ammo!
“Match-accurate” is not an empty promise. This round’s bullet’s G1 BC (a numeric representation of aerodynamic efficiency) isn’t just a sky-high 0.597 because it is heavy. That bullet is the ELD-X, which has a special polymer tip that equalizes drag and doesn’t deform under aerodynamic friction; an Advanced Manufacturing Process jacket that has essentially zero wall thickness variation; a boat tail and secant ogive profile that both diminish drag! Once it departs a 24” barrel, the ELD-X performs thusly:
0yds: 2,820 fps | 3,532 ft lbs | -1.5”
100yds: 2,667 fps | 3,158 ft lbs | 4.1”
200yds: 2,519 fps | 2,817 ft lbs | 4.8”
300yds: 2,375 fps | 2,506 ft lbs | 0.0”
400yds: 2,236 fps | 2,222 ft lbs | -10.9”
500yds: 2,102 fps | 1,963 ft lbs | -28.9”
600yds: 1,973 fps | 1,729 ft lbs | -54.7”
The ELD-X isn’t just a match bullet. It is also a long-range hunting bullet in full, with a thick jacket shank and InterLock ring that fortify it for deep penetration (at least 50% weight retention within 400 yards; 85% beyond), and a concealed nose cavity, hard polymer tip, and tapered jacket that reliably deliver broad expansion at lower velocities.
