Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor 140gr ELD-M

Precision That Rivals Homeloads

Okay we'll level with you - it's expensive stuff.

But the Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor 140gr ELD-M (Extremely Low Drag-Match) ammunition represents the pinnacle of long-range precision, period. 

Featuring Hornady's advanced Heat Shield® tip technology, these rounds maintain their ballistic coefficient even after the heat of firing, delivering consistent performance when it matters most. It's probably one of the only options for serious PRS competitors outside of loading your own

Performance Details

This is premium match-grade ammunition that performs with exceptional consistency across various barrel lengths, though it shines brightest in 24-26" barrels. The 140gr weight balances perfectly in the sweet spot between velocity and stability, with the Extremely Low Drag profile maintaining energy downrange better than your phone battery on a weekend away. Ideal for shooters seeking match-winning accuracy without the time investment of handloading.

Why Choose This Over Similar Options

While there are cheaper 6.5 Creedmoor options available, the ELD-M line offers measurably superior ballistic performance compared to standard hunting loads. The Heat Shield® tip technology prevents deformation at high velocities, maintaining the ballistic coefficient where conventional polymer tips would falter. Your wallet might feel lighter, but your confidence at extended ranges will be rock solid.
