HORNADY A-TIP MATCH Bullets - 6.5mm, 8.7g/135gr (100pcs)
Important Note: This is a reloading component and not loaded ammunition. For experienced reloaders only.
A specific Hornady A-Tip® seating stem is required for optimal bullet seating.
The result of years of research and testing, the Hornady® A-TIP® Match bullet represents the pinnacle of low-drag, high-performance projectile design. The Hornady Ballistic Development Group has combined advanced manufacturing processes with rigorous quality control measures to create the ultimate match bullet for discerning long-range shooters.
Key Features:
- Precision Aluminum Tip: Each bullet features a long, precision-machined aluminum tip. This design moves the center of gravity forward, enhancing in-flight stability and consistency.
- Advanced Aerodynamic Design: The ideal blend of the long aluminum tip, a secant ogive, an optimized boat tail, and the highly concentric AMP® bullet jacket results in an extremely high ballistic coefficient and superior accuracy.
- Low Drag & Consistency: This design leads to tighter groups and reduced drag variability. Doppler radar testing has verified that A-TIP® bullets are forgiving of twist rate, seating depth, and muzzle velocity.
- Sequential Packaging: Bullets are packaged sequentially as they come off the press, ensuring the ultimate in consistent performance from one bullet to the next right out of the box.
- Minimal Handling: To preserve their pristine condition, these bullets are not bulk washed. Instead, they are minimally handled and packaged with a polishing bag for the reloader to prepare before seating.
