Hornady 6.5mm Creedmoor 140gr ELD Match Ammo Bullet Drop and Load Data
Product Overview
Precision meets innovation in Hornady's 6.5mm Creedmoor 140gr ELD Match load. This isn't just another match round - it's the result of advanced aerodynamic research and cutting-edge bullet design. The Extremely Low Drag projectile, pushing 2710 fps at the muzzle, delivers the kind of accuracy that makes mirage your biggest challenge, not bullet performance. With 2283 ft-lbs of initial energy, you'll get positive feedback from steel targets while maintaining the consistency needed for those tiny orange dots at 600 yards.
Put this ammunition to work in PRS matches or F-Class competition, and you'll understand why serious competitors stock up when they find it. The 140-grain weight hits the stability sweet zone in most 6.5mm twist rates, meaning you'll spend more time calling wind and less time wondering about your ammunition's consistency. Those tiny groups at 100 yards? They're just a warmup for what this round can do when you stretch its legs across serious distance.
Data-driven shooters will appreciate how this load creates repeatable results worth recording in your range book. Each shot builds your understanding of external ballistics, while the consistent velocities help you develop reliable DOPE for your rifle. Whether you're collecting ballistic data for your next match or fine-tuning your wind-reading skills, this ELD Match offering removes ammunition performance from your list of variables. Just remember to bring enough - watching these groups print tends to make range days longer than planned.
