Varmint Hunting
Relatively low recoil. Flat trajectory. The capacity for spot-on accuracy up to around 1,200 yards. These are the reasons why the 6.5 Creedmoor is continually gaining fans across the USA. If you need a whole bunch of high-quality range ammo to show your appreciation for the .2644” diameter bullet, then Hornady’s American Gunner series ammo will get you where you want to be!
This cartridge’s 140 grain hollow point boat tail is not a hunting bullet per se. If that hot chunk of lead and copper collides with a varmint, then the varmint probably isn’t going to notice what happens to it next. But if the HPBT sinks into a deer or other medium-sized critter, its inability to follow up impact with terminal expansion is going to count a lot against it.
Where the HPBT really shines is at the rifle range. That’s where you can appreciate just how well its form-fitted lead core and concentric jacket promote in-flight stability, and how effectively its sleek frontal profile and boat tail both minimize drag. Once the bullet clears a 24” barrel, its 2,690 fps muzzle velocity and 0.580 G1 ballistic coefficient will prevent transonic destabilization until approximately 1,350 yards.
Made in Nebraska with five-star Boxer primers, clean-burning propellant and reloadable brass cases. Shipped to your house in a hurry when you order from Lucky Gunner!
