Description

Hornady 50 Cal .499 Dia 340 Grain Bore Driver ELD-X Bullet

Fast and easy to load, the Bore Driver® delivers the ultimate in muzzleloader performance. At the heart of the system is a polymer base (not a sabot) that seals the bore to deliver maximum energy transfer and accuracy. Atop the base is an ELD-X® or FTX® bullet, featuring a rugged gilding metal jacket coupled with polymer tip technology and an InterLock® ring that delivers maximum lethality.

When you have one shot this muzzleloader season, make it count and use the best – Hornady® Bore Driver®!

LOADS FAST AND EASY

Without a sabot, the Bore Driver® seats quickly and easily for shot-after-shot performance.

MAXIMUM LETHALITY

FTX® and ELD-X® bullets incorporate an InterLock® ring that helps retain bullet weight upon impact that when coupled with a tough copper alloy jacket, delivers deep penetration and expansion for the ultimate in on-game lethality.

POLYMER TIP

Upon impact, the polymer tip drives into the lead core like a wedge, initiating lightning-fast, yet controlled expansion.

PERFORMANCE-BOOSTING BASE

The polymer base features a post that fits into the bottom of the bullet. This post swells in diameter at ignition for better torque engagement from inside the bullet and the centering petals grip the bullet’s boattail while the skirt engages the rifling to maximize energy transmission.

    I bought a Thompson Center 209-50 magnum Encore in 1999 and just never got around to shooting it… fast forward 25 years and I took it out of the box, scoped it, purchased 24 of the Hornady 340gr. ELD Bore Drivers and took it to the range today, with an 84 grain by weight charge of 2F Triple 7… it produced 1748 FPS average over 5 shots, and zeroed on the 3rd shot at 104 (just the range) yards and the next 2 shots were touching… with a final 3 shot group of .77 center to center. These are dang good bullets. What your chronograph (12’ in front of the muzzle) and the 5 shot fired through the chronograph the cup at the back of the bullet leaves faster than I thought and took out my LCD screen of the chronograph… I found the 5/8” dent and the cup below my tripod.
