6.5 Creedmoor 130 Grain Nosler AccuBond~Ā TheĀ 6.5mm Creedmoor,Ā is aĀ centerfireĀ rifleĀ cartridgeĀ introducedĀ in 2007Ā as a modification of theĀ .30 TC,Ā which was based on theĀ .308 Winchester. It was designed specifically forĀ long-range target shooting,Ā although it is also achieving success inĀ gameĀ hunting.Ā Bullet for bullet, the 6.5mm Creedmoor achieves a slowerĀ muzzle velocityĀ than longer cartridges such as theĀ 6.5-284 NormaĀ orĀ magnum cartridgesĀ such as theĀ 6.5mm Remington Magnum. However, due to its 2.825 inches (71.8Ā mm)Ā overall length, it is capable of being chambered in short-actionĀ bolt-action riflesĀ andĀ AR-10Ā semi-automatic rifles.
Long-range shooter Ray āRayDogā Sanchez summarized theĀ bolt-actionĀ Tubb 2000Ā rifle in 6.5mm Creedmoor as āboringly accurateā at 1,000 yards (910Ā m). He asserted the rifle and ammunition combination he used was able to maintain sub-MOA groups at 1000 yards.
Our 100% Hand-Loaded Nosler AccuBond rounds are loaded with extremely tight tolerances, producing highly accurate, consistent and reliable performance with each and every shot! Our proprietary load formulas and loading process create the finest round of ammunition available on the commercial market today we feel. If you donāt load your own ammunition- let us do it for you!
The Bulletā
Through an exclusive bonding process that eliminates voids in the bullet core, AccuBond couples Noslerās proven copper-alloy jacket with its special lead-alloy core. The result is a bullet that flies true, penetrates deep and retains its weight, without causing extensive barrel fouling. The unique white polymer tip resists deforming and initiates expansion on impact. Noslerās Solid Base at the rear of the bullet acts as a platform for large diameter mushrooms.

.25-06 Remington 100 Grain Nosler Ballistic Tip~Ā TheĀ .25-06 RemingtonĀ had been aĀ wildcat cartridgeĀ for half a century before being standardized byĀ RemingtonĀ in 1969. It is based on theĀ .30-06 SpringfieldĀ cartridge necked-down (case opening made narrower) to .257Ā caliber with no other changes. Nominal bullet diameter is 0.257 inches and bullet weights range from 75 to 120 grains.Ā The cartridge has less felt recoil than a 30-06 in a similar weight rifle, due to the lighter weight bullets used. Shooters who are recoil sensitive will find the recoil from the 25-06 bearable, but not pleasant enough to shoot all day long. This cartridge is not quite as powerful as theĀ .257 Weatherby Magnum, usually running 200ā300Ā ft/s (61ā91Ā m/s). slower with a given bullet weight.
.25-caliber bullets typically have high ballistic coefficients without being heavy. This characteristic, when combined with the large case capacity of its parent .30-06 case, allows relatively high muzzle velocities without heavy recoil. The combination of high ballistic coefficients with high muzzle velocities give the .25-06 a very flat trajectory as well as retaining kinetic energy down-range. The .25-06 is generally considered to be a good round for medium-sized game such asĀ deerĀ andĀ antelopeĀ because of its combination of substantial kinetic energy and moderate recoil. The addition of a flat trajectory makes it particularly popular in plains states where the open fields can require longer-range shots on game, as this flatness tends to minimize range-estimation errors by the hunter.

The Bullet
Noslerās Ballistic Tip Bullets are designed for violent expansion upon impact. The bullet is tipped with a polycarbonate tip which rapidly drives back forcing the thin jacket to expand and fragment. The heavy base prevents deformation during firing and the boat-tail design increases the ballistic efficiency of the bullet.

The Bullet-
Noslerās special lead alloy, dual core provides superior mushrooming performance at virtually all impact velocities. The Partitionās fully tapered copper jacket gradually thickens along the bulletās axis, controlling the coreās mushroom for controlled, uniform expansion. An integral partition separates the bulletās two cores, holding two-thirds of the bulletās original weight in the rear core to fuel a deep penetration every time. Special crimp locks help the bullet resist deformation, even with the heaviest of magnum loads. Each Partition bullet is designed by Nosler engineers to give you the optimum length, weight, and ogive design for each caliber to give you maximum flight and terminal performance. Minimum impact velocity: 1800 fps.Ā There arenāt a lot of true disadvantages to this bullet because it is truly ādebuggedā technology. Newer bullets are very specialized for certain uses ā some are for large game, some are for long range, and some are just for penetration or expansion. The Nosler Partition is more of a ājack of all trades and master of noneā at this stage in bullet technology.

The Bullet~Ā 100-PERCENT COPPER BODY
Since its introduction in 2003, Barnesā TSX Bullet has earned a reputation as āthe perfect hunting bullet.ā Now, Barnes has improved on perfection by adding a streamlined polymer tip. The new Tipped TSX features the same 100-percent copper body with multiple rings cut into the shank. It delivers the same gnatās-eyelash accuracy and ādead right thereā performanceābut with an added polymer tip that boosts BC and improves long-range ballistics. The tip and a re-engineered nose cavity provide even faster expansion. Complete penetration, virtually 100-percent weight retention and four razor-sharp cutting petals that double bullet diameter means the new Tipped TSX creates more internal damage than any competing bullet. Instant expansion and perfect penetration ensures cleaner, quicker kills.
