200ds – 6.5 Creedmoor Federal Gold Medal 140gr. Sierra MatchKing BTHP Ammo

Federal Ammunition 140 Grain Hollow-Point Boat Tail (HP-BT) Ammo Details

This 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge from Federal’s Gold Medal line of ammunition features a 140 grain Sierra MatchKing projectile. Optimized for stellar accuracy in every way, this bullet features an extremely thin jacket which is drawn to virtually perfect concentricity, and its weight is remarkably uniform as well. This bullet’s streamlined boat tail design markedly increases its ballistic coefficient to convey numerous benefits to its inflight performance, including resistance to cross winds, flattened trajectory, and higher velocity retained downrange. Finally, that this is a hollow point bullet means it still provides devastating terminal performance which you can count on to take down rugged game animals fast.

This round further offers a propellant specially formulated to best complement its caliber’s performance, benchrest quality Gold Medal primer, and factory fresh brass casing which you may reload multiple times. When it’s accuracy over staggering distances that you’re looking for, this round’s your best friend.
