Hornady 22791 ELD Match Target .224 75gr ammunition delivers precision-focused performance for competitive shooters and long-range target work. These Extremely Low Drag Match (ELD-M) bullets are purpose-built for accuracy and consistency—designed to shoot better at distance, from the range to steel and beyond. Hornady's reloading-component engineering goes deep here: every round benefits from matched ballistics, lot-to-lot uniformity, and the kind of meticulous attention to meplat (tip geometry) that separates match ammo from the rest.
The standout feature is the Heat Shield tip, a heat-resistant polymer jacket that solves a real problem for high-velocity, streamlined bullets. At extended range—particularly beyond 400 yards—conventional bullet tips can warp or melt slightly due to aerodynamic friction, degrading ballistic coefficient and throwing off your groups. Hornady's Heat Shield resists that deformation, maintaining consistent BC performance shot after shot and lot after lot. The result is predictable, repeatable accuracy where it matters most.
Built for reloaders and shooters who demand precision, the 75-grain .224 caliber format is suitable for small to medium rifle applications and has earned a reputation for match-grade consistency. Whether you're building loads for competition, load development, or simply chasing tighter groups, these bullets give you the aerodynamic efficiency and manufacturing precision that separates good shooting from great shooting.
| Caliber | .224 (22 Cal) |
| Weight | 75 grains |
| Bullet Type | ELD Match (Extremely Low Drag Match) |
| Product Code | 22791 |
| Manufacturer | Hornady |
The .224 caliber is used in cartridges like the .223 Remington, 5.56 NATO, and other small-frame rifle applications. Verify compatibility with your specific rifle and reloading manual before assembly.
The Heat Shield tip is made from a heat-resistant polymer that resists deformation from aerodynamic friction. At extended ranges (400+ yards), conventional tips can warp slightly, reducing ballistic coefficient and consistency. The Heat Shield maintains its shape and the designed meplat, preserving accuracy and ballistic performance.
Yes—these are reloading components (bullets) designed for hand-loaders who assemble their own ammunition. Always consult a trusted reloading manual for load data, safety, and proper technique specific to your equipment and cartridge.
Match-grade ammunition demands uniform performance. Bullet-to-bullet and lot-to-lot consistency ensures that your carefully worked-up loads stay stable over time and across multiple purchases, keeping groups tight and predictable at distance.
