The Hornady CX 30 Cal 190gr copper solid hunting bullets are monolithic rifle bullets built for reloaders who demand deep penetration, consistent accuracy, and reliable performance on medium to large game. Unlike traditional lead-core bullets, the CX uses a one-piece copper alloy construction that won't separate on impact, retaining approximately 95% of its weight while delivering the kind of terminal performance that earns trust in the field. If you hunt in California or other regions requiring nontraditional ammunition, these bullets are fully compliant and ready to load.
The 30-caliber, 190-grain projectile incorporates Hornady's Heat Shield Tip—a heat-resistant polymer that keeps the bullet's ballistic coefficient consistent throughout its flight path by resisting aerodynamic heating. This attention to tip geometry also ensures a perfectly uniform meplat (the flat point tip) from bullet to bullet and lot to lot, which translates to tighter groups and more predictable trajectories downrange. The grooved design maximizes aerodynamic efficiency while reducing bearing surface, so you get better ballistic performance without excessive fouling in your barrel.
Built for reloaders who want to hand-craft ammunition tailored to their rifle's performance, the CX 190gr gives you a premium hunting bullet option that balances penetration depth with the consistency needed for long-range accuracy. Whether you're developing loads for elk, deer, or other game, or simply need a California-legal alternative to conventional bullets, this is solid material to work with.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these bullets legal in California?
Yes. The Hornady CX is fully California compatible and meets nontraditional bullet requirements in states that restrict traditional lead-core ammunition.
What game are these bullets suitable for?
The CX 190gr is appropriate for medium-size to large game hunting. The monolithic copper alloy construction and deep penetration characteristics make it well-suited for elk, deer, and similar-sized animals.
Will these bullets separate on impact?
No. The one-piece copper alloy construction is designed not to separate, and the bullet retains approximately 95% of its weight through impact to maximize penetration and terminal performance.
What is the Heat Shield Tip?
The Heat Shield Tip is a heat-resistant polymer that resists aerodynamic heating during flight, maintaining the bullet's ballistic coefficient throughout its trajectory. It also provides a consistently perfect meplat for improved accuracy and uniformity lot to lot.
