Product Overview
Browning Long Range Pro Hunter 6.8 Western 175gr ammunition leverages Sierra's legendary Tipped GameKing bullet to deliver exceptional long-range hunting accuracy. The 175-grain projectile is the heaviest available factory load for the 6.8 Western, maximizing the cartridge's ability to drive high-BC bullets at velocities that maintain devastating terminal energy at extreme distances. With 2,835 fps muzzle velocity and 3,124 ft-lbs of energy, this load brings true magnum performance to the short-action platform.
This ammunition is optimized for hunters who prioritize shot-to-shot consistency and the flattest possible trajectory for big game at 500+ yards. The Tipped GameKing combines a polymer tip for rapid expansion with Sierra's match-grade jacket construction, resulting in the accuracy serious hunters expect from premium ammunition. The 0.617 G1 ballistic coefficient ensures the bullet shrugs off crosswinds and arrives on target with authority, making it particularly effective in the windy conditions common during Western big game seasons.
Experienced hunters with rifles capable of sub-MOA accuracy will appreciate how this ammunition maximizes their system's long-range potential. The heavy bullet weight provides excellent momentum for deep penetration on elk and moose, while the tipped design ensures the expansion necessary for quick, ethical kills. This is the premium choice for hunters who view their rifle as a precision tool and demand factory ammunition that shoots like a handload.
