45 cal .458 Bore Driver® ELD-X® 280gr

Hornady Bore Driver® ELD-X 45 Cal .458 280gr Bullet

The Bore Driver® is fast and easy to load to deliver the ultimate muzzleloader performance. The base of the bullet is a polymer base (not a sabot) that seals the bore to deliver the maximum energy transfer. The bullet is a ELD-X®  or FTX®  bullet, featuring a gilding metal jacket coupled with a polymer tip and an InterLock® ring technology to bring maximum lethality. 

Performance Boosting Design

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

By not having a sabot, the Bore Driver® seats quickly for easy reloading. The polymer tip upon impact drives into the lead core initiating fast yet controlled expansion. The ELD-X® bullet InterLock® ring that helps retain bullet weight upon impact, coupled with a tough copper jacket, delivers deep penetration and expansion for the best on-game lethality.
