About 6.5 Creedmoor Ammunition

The 6.5 Creedmoor was introduced by Hornady in 2007 and serves as a modern expansion on the concept of a 6mm round. This relatively new cartridge has become increasingly popular in recent years, establishing a solid reputation in both the world of hunting and precision shooting. Like the .243 Win, the 6.5 Creedmoor is also well-known for its light recoil, accuracy, and flat trajectory. The cartridge has garnered attention from law enforcement and military agencies as rifles in the caliber have been tested and employed in marksman and sniper type roles.

Types of 6.5 Creedmoor Loadings

  • Hollow Point Boat Tail (HPBT): HPBT loadings feature hollow point projectiles with boat tail style bases. These differ from traditional projectiles with flat bases and are well-suited to precision-oriented shooting. Like traditional hollow point loadings, these loadings are also designed to facilitate expansion on impact.
  • Soft Point (SP): SP loadings feature soft, exposed lead projectile tips which are conducive to expanding upon impact. These loadings are mainly utilized in hunting applications and are effective at imparting a high degree of kinetic energy transfer. Specialty SP loadings also exist which are optimized for different types of hunting and game.
  • Extremely Low Drag Match (ELD Match): Loadings of this type feature premium ELD Match bullets from Hornady. These projectiles are well-suited to use cases in which precision is paramount. These projectiles feature boat tail bases and a variety of other features such as Hornady’s heat Shield tip and low drag bullet profile which make them well-suited to precision work.
  • Full Metal Jacket (FMJ): Like the name suggests, these types of loadings feature projectiles which are adorned with metal jacketing. This jacket is generally made of copper and will cover the tip and sides of the projectile. Typically, the base of the projectile is left uncoated. These types of loadings are well-suited for range use and are some of the most common types of ammo one will encounter.
  • Open Tip Match (OTM): These types of loadings will generally feature heavier projectiles and are well-suited to precision-oriented shooting. Material has been removed from these projectiles, hence the “Open-Tip Match” designation, helping achieve high velocities. While technically a hollow point, these loadings are designed for superior ballistic performance and not intended to function as standard hollow points.
