Hornady’s American Gunner line of ammunition is comprised of versatile cartridges that deliver big no matter how you’d use them. This hornady 6.5 creedmoor ammo is ideal for target shooting or varmint applications thanks to its 140 grain BTHP projectile. The bullet’s tapered base improves its ballistic coefficient to provide excellent accuracy, as well as the ability to retain velocity over longer distances and resist the effects of cross winds. The bullet’s narrow hollow point tip further streamlines its profile, making it accurate enough for precise shooting at extended ranges. Top it all off with a select brass casing, and you’ve got a real tack driver.
According to its manufacturer, this cartridge’s 140 grain BTHP projectile delivers a 2,690 fps muzzle velocity out of a 24″ barrel and retains a 1,972 fps velocity at the 500 yard mark. Given that, Hornady calculates the round’s G1 ballistic coefficient at .580. According to our calculations we expect the bullet to rise by about 5.79 inches when zeroed in at 300 yards. Its velocity should stay supersonic until around the 1,342 yard mark, and its energy should stay in four digit territory until 640 yards.
These 200 rounds of Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition come packed in a rugged and reusable field box. Its tackle box-like handle makes it convenient for transporting ammo, and its latch seals the box tightly to help keep water from reaching its valuable contents.
