Hornady's Match line of ammunition features carefully selected components that work together to ensure consistent, uniform performance with every shot. The rounds are loaded with the company's ELD Match, A-MAX or BTHP bullets.

The company uses tight quality control measures to check that every round is seated properly, cases are filled with consistent charges and that each round produces optimal velocity and repeatable accuracy. Match cases are chosen based on strict criteria, which includes wall thickness uniformity, internal capacity, case weight and wall concentricity. Hornady's AMP bullet jackets are manufactured in such a way to feature near-zero wall thickness variation, leading to a uniform bullet jacket. Powder and primers are also selected for optimum performance and quality.

The company's new Match offerings are as follows:

  • .223 Rem. 73-grain ELD Match ($27.32 per 20)
  • 6 mm Creedmoor 108-grain ELD Match ($38.60 per 20)
  • .260 Rem. 130-grain ELD Match ($38.60 per 20)
  • 6.5 Creedmoor 120-grain ELD Match ($38.60 per 20)
  • 6.5 Creedmoor 147-grain ELD Match ($41.51 per 20)
  • .308 Win. 155-grain ELD Match ($41.51 per 20)
  • .300 Win. Mag. 178-grain ELD Match ($53.11 per 20)
