The Hornady Precision Hunter 30-378 Weatherby Magnum ammunition delivers factory-loaded performance engineered for serious long-range hunting. Loaded with the advanced ELD-X bullet and optimized propellant charges, this ammunition combines exceptional accuracy with consistent shot-to-shot results that demand more from a hunting cartridge. The 220-grain ELD-X bullet is built to perform across the full spectrum of practical hunting ranges—from close encounters to extended distances where velocity and energy drop significantly. Whether you're chasing elk in the high country or pursuing game at distance, Precision Hunter rounds are designed to maximize your rifle's ballistic potential and deliver ethical, reliable terminal performance in the field.
The ELD-X bullet stands apart through its Heat Shield tip technology, which resists the aerodynamic heating that degrades ballistic coefficient at extended ranges. This innovative design maintains consistent trajectory and velocity retention over distance, giving you flatter shooting and more predictable wind performance than conventional hunting bullets. The streamlined secant ogive and optimal boattail design work together to push ballistic efficiency to near best-in-class levels, verified through Doppler radar testing.
Terminal performance is where Precision Hunter truly excels. At conventional hunting ranges (0–400 yards), the ELD-X expands reliably upon impact while the thick jacket shank and Interlock ring retain 50–60% of bullet weight, driving deep for quick, decisive kills. At extended ranges (400+ yards), where impact velocity is lower, the Heat Shield tip initiates a controlled secondary expansion, creating a large mushroom cavity with 85–90% weight retention for deep penetration and maximum energy transfer. Hornady engineered the propellant selection for clean burning and uniform cartridge capacity, minimizing temperature-related velocity shifts that plague many factory loads.
Each box contains 20 rounds of ammunition loaded to exacting tolerances, making this an excellent choice for both preparation and practice leading up to your hunt. The attention to precision manufacturing reflects Hornady's reputation for match-grade consistency—something that matters when you have only one shot that counts.

The ELD-X (Extremely Low Drag – eXpanding) is Hornady's precision hunting bullet featuring a patent-pending Heat Shield tip. This tip resists aerodynamic heating during flight, maintaining its shape to preserve the bullet's ballistic coefficient over distance. The design has been verified by Doppler radar testing to deliver best-in-class ballistic performance, ensuring flatter trajectories and more consistent velocity retention at extended ranges compared to conventional hunting bullets.
Yes. The ELD-X bullet is engineered for two distinct terminal performance profiles. At conventional hunting ranges (0–400 yards), impact velocity is high and the bullet expands consistently, retaining 50–60% of its original weight while penetrating deeply. At extended ranges (400+ yards), where impact velocity is lower, the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion, creating larger cavitation with 85–90% weight retention. This dual-performance design makes it effective across the full practical hunting spectrum.
Precision Hunter ammunition is loaded with clean-burning propellants selected and charged to uniform capacity. This attention to consistent powder loading and cartridge fill minimizes shot-to-shot velocity variation regardless of temperature fluctuations, resulting in superior accuracy and predictable ballistic performance from round to round.
This ammunition is loaded specifically for the 30-378 Weatherby Magnum cartridge. Always verify that the cartridge designation on the box matches your rifle's chamber. If you are uncertain about your rifle's chambering, consult your rifle's documentation or speak with a firearms professional before loading and firing any ammunition.
