200rds - 6.5 Grendel Hornady Custom 123gr. SST Ammo

200rds - 6.5 Grendel Hornady Custom 123gr. SST Ammo Details

Whether you prefer to push 6.5mm Grendel through a short-action bolt gun or a tried and trusted AR-pattern rifle, you'll find these rounds from Hornady are quite palatable when dropping big hogs, exotic oryx, and speedy pronghorns! Cartridges from Hornady's Custom line feature purpose-specific powder and primers loaded into their own brass which inspected and tested for seamless feeding, fantastic corrosion resistance, and proper hardness for safe function with maximum pressure. As a result, Hornady Custom is some of the most precisely calculated ammunition on the market.


These particular 6.5mm rounds are topped with a Super Shock Tip (SST) projectile which weighs in at 123 grains; this is a very popular weight for the caliber and matches known ballistic tables as well as some drop compensating reticles. Hornady's SST bullet profile includes a boat rail rear and secant ogive front for optimized drag resistance, increased range, and breathtaking accuracy. This projectile is designed to penetrate deep and produce massive wound cavities in vital zones via its hollow cavity which is covered by a polymer windshield. Game-dropping expansion occurs at a controlled rate thanks an internal Interlock Ring and a toothed cannelure which also ensures proper crimp and chamber seating.
