HRNDY VM 25CM 95GR ELD-VT 20/200

Description

Hornady’s V-Match line was built around a straightforward premise: factory ammunition that genuinely competes at the precision end of the market, rather than splitting the difference between hunting and target loads. The 25 Creedmoor chambering sits in an interesting position for long-range shooters—it pushes a relatively light bullet fast enough to carry a flat trajectory well past the distances where wind becomes the dominant variable, making it a natural fit for varmint work at extended range as well as precision target use where recoil management matters.

The bullet at the center of this load is Hornady’s ELD-VT, which stands for Extremely Low Drag – Varmint/Target. The heat-resistant polymer tip serves two purposes: it preserves the aerodynamic profile of the bullet in flight, preventing the tip deformation that heat and air friction cause at high velocity, and it initiates reliable, violent expansion on soft tissue. For a shooter transitioning between a varmint and a target application with the same ammunition, that dual-purpose design is a meaningful practical advantage. The match-grade brass casing supports consistent neck tension and primer seating, which feeds directly into shot-to-shot velocity consistency—the variable that matters most when you’re reading wind and trying to keep your data clean across a string of fire.

At 95 grains, this projectile is optimized for the velocity potential of the 25 Creedmoor case rather than the heavier, higher-BC bullets associated with the cartridge’s long-range andwind-bucking applications. That’s a deliberate trade-off: more explosive terminal performance and a flatter initial arc at the cost of some retained energy at the far end. Each box contains 20 rounds of brass-cased, new-production ammunition.
