The Hornady Precision Hunter 300 Rem SAUM 178gr ELD-X ammunition is engineered for hunters who demand consistency and stopping power across varied distances and game sizes. This factory-loaded round pairs the ballistically refined 178-grain ELD-X bullet with clean-burning propellants and uniform loading practices—the kind of attention to detail that separates match-grade hunting ammo from commodity off-the-shelf loads. Whether you're glassing for whitetail at 100 yards or planning a long-range shot at 400-plus, this cartridge delivers the velocity, trajectory, and terminal performance to handle the moment when it matters.
The ELD-X bullet is the centerpiece here. Its Heat Shield tip resists the aerodynamic heating that degrades ballistic coefficient at extended range, so it maintains its shape and trajectory predictability from point of aim to impact. The streamlined secant ogive and optimized boattail profile combine with highly concentric bullet jackets to produce superior downrange efficiency—verified by Doppler radar. That design translates to flatter shooting and less wind drift, which tightens your margin for error on living targets.
Terminal performance is where hunting ammo proves itself. At conventional ranges (under 400 yards) and higher velocities, the ELD-X expands progressively through its penetration path, retaining 50–60% of its weight and creating a devastating wound channel. When velocity drops at extended range (400+ yards), the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the bullet body to initiate expansion at lower impact speeds—a controlled mushroom with 85–90% weight retention that penetrates deep and leaves a wide cavity. This dual-performance behavior means the same load works on game from 50 to 1,500 pounds, eliminating the guesswork about which round to reach for.
Each box contains 20 rounds, ready to load and shoot. Precision Hunter ammunition is the result of Hornady's commitment to match-accurate loads that respect the capability of modern hunting rifles and scopes.

| Round Count | 20 rounds per box |
| Intended Game | Medium game (50–300 lbs), Large game (300–1,500 lbs) |
Hornady Precision Hunter 300 Rem SAUM is rated for medium game weighing 50–300 pounds and large game weighing 300–1,500 pounds, making it versatile across most North American hunting applications from deer and elk to moose.
The Heat Shield tip is designed to resist aerodynamic heating and maintain its shape at extended range, preserving ballistic coefficient. At 400+ yards and lower impact velocities, the tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion with controlled mushrooming and 85–90% weight retention for deep penetration.
Each box contains 20 rounds of factory-loaded Hornady Precision Hunter ammunition, ready to fire.
No. Hornady loads Precision Hunter with clean-burning propellants at uniform capacity, which provides consistent performance regardless of temperature variations—important for hunting in changing weather conditions.
