Product Description
Hornady CX Features The monolithic copper alloy construction means there is no jacket to separate from a lead core so the bullet holds together through deep penetration and delivers consistent terminal performance shot after shot on game ranging from deer to larger species. The Heat Shield tip is molded from a heat-resistant polymer that won t deform under the aerodynamic heating a traditional polymer tip experiences at high velocity keeping the ballistic coefficient stable across the entire trajectory. That same tip design also produces a consistent meplat giving handloaders reliable bullet-to-bullet and lot-to-lot uniformity when working up precision loads. Optimized groove geometry cut into the bearing surface reduces fouling and drag in the bore which helps maintain accuracy over an extended reloading session without the copper buildup traditional monolithic bullets can produce. Because the CX contains no lead it is a fully compliant option for hunters in California and other regions that require nontraditional projectiles. At a .286 sectional density and .596 ballistic coefficient this 160 grain 7mm bullet gives handloaders a serious option for building precision long-range hunting ammunition for medium to large game.
