Hornady's precision hunter features a heat shield tip that resists the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to maintain the highest-in-class bc over its entire trajectory.A streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design highly concentric amp bullet jackets and heat shield tip combine for radically superior aerodynamic efficiency.With high velocity 0-400 yard impact the bullet continually expands throughout its penetration path.The thick shank of the jacket and high interlock ring work to keep the core and jacket together providing 50-60% weight retention.Upon low velocity 400+ yard impacts the heat shield tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion.Exhibiting controlled expansion with a large mushroom and 85-90% retained weight the bullet provides deep penetration and large cavities.
