Hornady Precision Hunter 6.5 PRC 143 Grain ELD-X Rifle Ammo (20)

The name says it all. The 6.5 Precision Rifle Cartridge was designed to achieve the highest levels of accuracy, flat trajectory and extended range performance in a sensibly designed compact package. Utilizing moderate powder charges that result in repeatable accuracy, low recoil and reasonable barrel life, the 6.5 PRC produces high velocities with performance well beyond 1000 yards.

Featuring the radically superior ELD-X bullet with patent-pending Heat Shield™ tip, Precision Hunter® is the ideal load for any hunting situation because of its effective terminal performance at all practical ranges. Verified by Doppler radar, the Heat Shield tip defies the effects of aerodynamic heating and retains its shape to maintain the highest in-class BC over its entire trajectory.
