Product Overview
Winchester's 125-grain Open Tip 6.5 Creedmoor breaks from convention in all the right ways. While others chase heavier bullets, this load harnesses a lighter projectile to achieve an impressive 2850 fps - speed that translates into noticeably less drop and drift. At 2254 ft-lbs, it's got enough punch to ring steel with authority, while the open tip design brings match-grade accuracy to a practice-priced round.
Watch this round shine during those extended range sessions where consistency matters more than raw power. The open tip bullet, paired with that extra velocity, cuts clean holes in paper at 100 yards and delivers positive feedback on steel at distance. You'll appreciate how the reduced recoil lets you spot impacts without losing sight picture, perfect for building those vital long-range skills without wearing yourself out.
From PRS practice to weekend precision clinics, this load finds its sweet spot in high-volume target work. The lighter bullet weight means less fatigue during extended strings, while still maintaining the accuracy needed for serious training. It's equally capable on coyotes and prairie dogs, where the flat trajectory simplifies those tricky distance shots. Load up for a day of precision practice or predator hunting - either way, you're getting performance that punches above its price tag.
- 125-grain weight hits the sweet spot between light match loads and hunting rounds, offering excellent stability without excessive recoil
- Open tip design delivers target-grade accuracy potential at a price point that works for frequent range sessions
- Moderate velocity extends barrel life while maintaining enough zip for engaging steel targets with authority
- Feeds smoothly in magazine-fed rifles thanks to carefully engineered bullet profile
- Target-focused design limits versatility compared to dual-purpose hunting loads
- Middle-ground velocity means more adjustment needed for long-range shots in changing winds
- Not optimized for maximum precision like premium match offerings, though difference only shows at extended ranges
