.22 Creedmoor 70 Grain Nosler AccuBond~100% Hand-Loaded!!

.22 Creedmoor 80 grain Hornady ELD-X– The .22 Creedmoor is a necked down version of the 6.5 Creedmoor to a .224 bullet. It was pioneered by Derrick Ratliff in 2023.

The .22 Creedmoor has exceptional speed, is super flat shooting and has very minimal wind drift at extended distances. The caliber is an excellent choice for small to mid-sized game animals, and perhaps one of the most lethal predator rounds available with performances exceeding even the 22-250 and 220 Swift. This caliber is a pleasure to shoot, with minimal recoil. With velocities exceeding 3,300 fps with an 80 grain bullet, the round delivers nearly 1,000 foot pounds of energy still at 500 yards, making some consider it to be an adequate deer rifle as well.

Choice Ammunition has introduced the .22 Creedmoor round with 80 grain Hornady ELD-X with the same 100% hand-loading techniques as our other calibers. Our loading techniques and extremely tight tolerances are only matched by passionate hand-loaders in their own loading rooms. Our consistencies box to box and lot to lot, are created by continuous testing at the range- adjusting varied powder and brass lot formulas to match exact velocities and points of impact as the last time we loaded this caliber. Exact seating depths and our proprietary load formulas produce a round of ammunition you can count on for accuracy and dependability each and every time- and at that critical moment in the field when it all comes down to the shot!

The Bullet–

The Heat Shield tip of the Hornady ELD-X bullet defies the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to provide a perfect meplat (tip) that is always the same shape. A streamlined secant ogive with optimum boattail design, plus the highly concentric AMP bullet jackets, combined with the patent pending Heat Shield tip creates a supremely accurate, high BC match bullet. ELD-Match bullet BCs are measured with Doppler radar and corrected to standard atmospheric conditions. With high velocity, 0-400 yard impact, the bullet continually expands throughout its penetration path. The thick shank of the jacket and high Interlock ring keep the core and jacket together providing 50-60% weight retention. Upon low velocity, 400+ yard impacts, the Heat Shield tip drives backward into the bullet to initiate expansion. Exhibiting conventional expansion with a large mushroom and 85-90% retained weight the bullet provides deep penetration and large wound cavities.
