Description
6.5 Creedmoor 140 Grain Hot-Cor Soft Point~ The 6.5mm Creedmoor, is a centerfire rifle cartridge introduced in 2007 as a modification of the .30 TC, which was based on the .308 Winchester. It was designed specifically for long-range target shooting, although it is also achieving success in game hunting. Bullet for bullet, the 6.5mm Creedmoor achieves a slower muzzle velocity than longer cartridges such as the 6.5-284 Norma or magnum cartridges such as the 6.5mm Remington Magnum. However, due to its 2.825 inches (71.8 mm) overall length, it is capable of being chambered in short-action bolt-action rifles and AR-10 semi-automatic rifles.
Long-range shooter Ray “RayDog” Sanchez summarized the bolt-action Tubb 2000 rifle in 6.5mm Creedmoor as “boringly accurate” at 1,000 yards (910 m). He asserted the rifle and ammunition combination he used was able to maintain sub-MOA groups at 1000 yards.

The Bullet-
Speer Hot-Cor Spitzer bullets have a higher ballistic coefficient and are designed to retain velocity over distance. This pattern, coupled with the Hot-Cor process of pouring molten lead directly into the jacket, provides a bullet that offers deep penetration and excellent expansion without core slippage, regardless of the range.
