The Hornady ELD Match .22 Cal Bullets, 80 gr (Hornady part no. 22831) are Hornady‘s technologically advanced target bullets, sized at .224 in. and sold 100 to a box. ELD Match (Extremely Low Drag Match) combines a Heat Shield polymer tip with an optimum secant ogive and boat-tail design to deliver the highest-in-class ballistic coefficients Hornady builds, along with superior accuracy and extreme consistency from bullet to bullet and lot to lot. The Heat Shield tip is immune to the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape, giving a perfect, repeatable meplat instead of one that degrades from friction at high velocity. At 80 grains, this is one weight in Hornady’s .22-caliber ELD Match lineup.
