- AMP jacket and InterLock ring keep core and jacket together, promoting controlled expansion with strong weight retention at a wide range of impact speeds.
- ELD-X design provides conventional range performance at high velocity with continual expansion through the penetration path.
- At extended range, the tip drives back into the core to initiate expansion, producing a large mushroom and deep penetration even at lower impact velocities.

- The 90 grain weight and .243 diameter profile pair well with common 6mm and .243 Winchester twists, letting you build accurate loads that stay stable and resist wind at distance.
- High BC and controlled expansion help your shots carry energy, track predictably, and create wide wound channels, which supports quick, ethical harvests across varied terrain.
- With 100 bullets per box, you can develop a final hunting load, confirm dope at multiple distances, and still have enough projectiles for a full season.
- If you want an all-range 6mm hunting bullet that combines long-range efficiency with reliable terminal performance, Hornady ELD-X 6mm .243 90 Grain Bullets (2441) are a dependable option for medium game hunters.
