Black Hills loads this round with the CX by Hornady. It’s a monolithic bullet – solid copper, no less – which means you’re looking at zero lead fouling, the awesome rotational stability that breeds outstanding accuracy, and extra-deep penetration to boot. The CX even features “optimum groove technology,” which is Hornady’s way of saying its shank is shaped to make minimal contact with the bore and just right for long-distance accuracy.
The CX’s polymer tip serves two purposes. As a Heat Shield, it is immune to deformation: precisely why it keeps the bullet streamlined regardless of how fiercely aerodynamic friction treats it. And because the tip is perched atop a deep hollow point nose cavity, it triggers the massive expansion that downs medium game quick.
Gold is Black Hills’ highest-quality ammo: loaded with the same degree of care that the South Dakotan manufacturer employs while producing sniper ammo for the military.
