Hornady CX (Copper alloy eXpanding) bullets are engineered for hunters and precision shooters who prioritize consistent external ballistics and retained mass. These .257-diameter, 90-grain projectiles employ a Heat Shield polymer tip to preserve ballistic consistency and a streamlined profile for reliable flight characteristics. The CX design targets consistent expansion and high weight retention for field and long-range applications.
