Do they think they are the next Game of Thrones with all the secrecy? They could have been a little more revealing with their big news.




Anyone know what their big anouncement might be?
 
Don't know, last time they had a huge announcement it was just a new bullet design, or the high temperature Ballistic tip that didn't melt at long range shooting.
We will have to wait and see.
 
i would like a 7PRC

Me too.

i do wonder what ase will they use the 6.5 or the 300, if they 6.5 it would be nice in my browning A-bolt. i like my 7wsm but hornady normally backs there cartridges good.

I'd prefer a 7mm PRC based on the 6.5 case instead of the 300, more short fat .280 AI than long action RUM, performance wise.

Given the smashing success of the SAUM and WSM though, I'm not confident that's what they are rolling out...
 
Just something to get the Fanboys wound up...
I own / use Hornady products. Also own / use others.
Won't be losing any sleep over "it". (Probably not even after the 24th! LOL!)
 
Keep it to yourselves, but I'm pretty sure they are announcing the new ELDx-X (Xtra-Xtreme) line of bullets.

These revolutionary titanium tipped bullets are the next step in long range shooting and hunting. The ELDx-X line sports radical G7 BCs of 0.6 and up, along with Xtra heavy weights* for more on game smackdown at ranges out to 2,000 yds where today's discerning, Kuiu clad hunter thrives.

* A barrel twist rate of 1:3" or faster is recommended for proper stabilization.


The first offerings in the ELDx-X line are slated to be:

- 120gr .224
- 150gr .243
- 200gr .264
- 250gr .284
- 300gr .308
- 400gr .338

Personally, I'm very excited, can't wait to get my hands on a box!

not titanium, it's got to be uranium the heaviest element.

Too bad you're joking, that 250 gr might really be a hoot outta my stw, and I've been curious about heavy subs in the .243, you know for sneaking up on the napping pronghorn and letting my buddies get an easy shot too. The 120 with proper twist might revive the old swift!

No need for fancy subsonic bullets, or for the goat to be sleeping, I reckon I could have harvested one of these boys with a well aimed rock.

Wanting people to say, “wow,” when they open the box... hmm... is it a Hornady precision bolt gun?
 
It's a technological breakthrough. A helium filled bullet with a flat trajectory. Remember, you heard it here first.
