The Hornady 3076 ELD-X hunting bullets in 30 caliber .308 200 grain are precision reloading components engineered for long-range accuracy and terminal performance across all practical hunting distances. These component bullets let you hand-load ammunition tailored to your specific rifle, powder charge, and hunting application—whether you're chasing elk at distance or working up loads for a custom hunting rifle. The 200 grain weight in .308 diameter hits the sweet spot for hunters who demand a flat trajectory without sacrificing the velocity stability needed for consistent shot placement.
Hornady's ELD-X design addresses a real problem conventional polymer-tipped bullets face at extended range: aerodynamic heating can degrade ballistic coefficient and accuracy, especially beyond 400 yards. The Heat Shield tip—a proprietary heat-resistant polymer—maintains a consistent meplat (bullet tip) that resists deformation in flight. This means your ballistic calculations stay accurate, and your bullet performs like you calculated it would, from the bench to the target.
Terminal behavior scales with impact velocity. At conventional hunting ranges (0–400 yards), the ELD-X expands progressively as it penetrates, with the thin nose section peeling back while an InterLock ring keeps core and jacket bonded. The thick shank drives forward for reliable, lethal expansion. At extended range, where velocity is lower, the Heat Shield tip retracts into the nose cavity to trigger expansion and produce a large mushroom with high weight retention—critical for deep penetration on tough game. The result is a bullet that works reliably whether you're 50 yards or 500 yards from your quarry.
These are component bullets for reloaders. You'll need compatible brass, powder, primers, and a reloading press. Hornady also offers factory-loaded ELD-X Precision Hunter ammunition if you prefer a complete round.
| Caliber | 30 Cal / .308 |
| Weight | 200 grain |
| Bullet Type | ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) |
| Product Number | 3076 |
| Format | Component bullets (for handloading) |
These are .308 diameter, 200 grain component bullets designed for 30 caliber rifles (.308 Winchester, .300 Win Mag, .300 Norma Mag, and similar cartridges). Always verify that the bullet diameter and weight are appropriate for your specific cartridge and rifle before loading. Consult reloading manuals for your exact caliber and powder recommendations.
Yes. These are component bullets sold for handloading. You'll need a reloading press, brass, powder, and primers to assemble complete ammunition. If you don't reload, Hornady offers ELD-X Precision Hunter factory ammunition as a finished round alternative.
The ELD-X is designed to perform across all practical hunting distances, from close range to extended range beyond 400 yards. The Heat Shield tip maintains ballistic coefficient in flight, and the expansion mechanism adapts to impact velocity—so the bullet performs reliably whether your shot is 100 yards or 500 yards away. Your actual effective range depends on your rifle, load, and shooting ability.
The ELD-X is engineered specifically for long-range hunting with a Heat Shield tip that resists aerodynamic heating and maintains accuracy at extended distance. The heat-resistant tip and velocity-adaptive expansion design make it a premium choice for hunters pursuing game at distance where conventional bullets may lose accuracy or performance.
