Hornady Match 25 Creedmoor Ammunition 134 Grain ELD - 81421
The Hornady Match 25 Creedmoor 134-grain ELD Match is engineered for shooters who demand extreme accuracy, consistency, and ballistic efficiency from their 25 Creedmoor ammo. Designed with Hornady’s advanced ELD (Extremely Low Drag) Match bullet, this load uses a Heat Shield tip to maintain aerodynamic stability and prevent tip deformation during flight. This 25 creedmoor ammo outperforms traditional BTHP projectiles. Each round is carefully assembled using AMP bullet jackets, matched powder charges, and precision-selected cases. This match ammo ensures consistent velocities, reliable ignition, and unmatched accuracy.
Delivering a muzzle velocity of 2,800 fps and 2,333 ft. lbs. of energy, the 134-grain ELD Match achieves superior flight stability and minimal wind drift. With a ballistic coefficient (G1) of .645 and sectional density of .298, this cartridge maintains energy and velocity over extended distances, offering shooters true long-range consistency.
Features and Specifications:
- Performance Metrics: This load is tuned for match performance and delivers an advertised muzzle velocity of 2800 fps with consistent downrange ballistics and tight group potential.
- Bullet Construction: The 134 grain ELD Match bullet features the Heat Shield tip, a precision AMP-style jacket, and a boattail secant ogive for maximum ballistic coefficient and stable flight.
- Design & Efficiency: The bullet’s high ballistic coefficient of .645 and sectional density of .298 reduce wind drift and retain velocity, making it well suited to long-range target work.
- Case & Primer: Hornady uses specially selected brass cases for uniform wall thickness and internal capacity along with reliable Boxer primers for consistent ignition and reloadability.
- Packaging Options: Sold in 20-round boxes and 200-round cases with free shipping on bulk ammo through Target Sports USA.
- Recommended Twist Rate: Minimum barrel twist rate of 1:9" is recommended to stabilize the 134-grain ELD projectile.
Deep Dive
Overview
The Hornady Match 25 Creedmoor 134-grain ELD is designed for shooters who prioritize precision and consistency. Its stable trajectory, tight grouping potential, and uniform velocity make it an excellent choice for long-range target shooting, training, and competition preparation. The combination of aerodynamic efficiency and high ballistic performance allows shooters to maintain precision at extended distances while minimizing wind drift and vertical dispersion.
History and Development
Hornady’s Match line has long been synonymous with accuracy and quality. Every component, from the ELD bullet with its Heat Shield tip to the AMP jacket and matched powder charge is selected for its contribution to consistency and performance. The 25 Creedmoor variant builds on this heritage, pairing modern cartridge engineering with Hornady’s proven match bullet design. The result is ammunition capable of delivering near-handloaded precision straight from the box, meeting the expectations of shooters who rely on Hornady Match ammo for reliable, repeatable results.
