Varmint Hunting
What is the ELD-VT? Some kind of Extremely Low Drag bullet designed for hunting in Vermont? Close! While we do hope to sell plenty of this 6.5 PRC ammo to Vermonters, anyone would love using it to harm varmints!
“Harm” is an understatement. The ELD-VT is engineered to fragment apart violently the instant it connects with an unfortunate varmint. Its long polymer tip hangs on the rim of a thin jacket; a large air gap separating its base from the lead core. Thanks to this design, even low-velocity impact forces the ELD-VT to have an explosive hissy fit.
Lethality is only half of the ELD-VT’s game. The match-accurate bullet’s flawlessly concentric AMP jacket and Heat Shield tip (which is made of polymer that is immune to the intense heat awaiting it in flight) unite to deliver a trajectory you can set your licensed rodent cartoon character watch to.
This tack driver’s 3,450 fps muzzle velocity and 0.448 G1 BC are products of a 24” test barrel. Here’s ballistic data for 3” sight height and 500-yard zero:
0yds: 3,450 fps | 2,643 ft lbs | -3.0”
