Berger Ammunition 6.5mm 144 Grain Long Range Hybrid Target bullet was specifically designed around the 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge. 6.5 Creedmoor fans have long touted that the ideal bullet weight for this cartridge in Precision Rifle competitions is somewhere between 140 and 150 grains. After experimenting with several designs and weights Berger engineering and ballistics team found that "sweet spot" at 144 grains and thus the 6.5mm 144 Grain Long Range Hybrid Target bullet was born. Berger went above and beyond with this design and not only found the ideal weight and profile but added our proprietary Meplat Reduction Technology process to the equation to further increase the BC while also reducing the BC Variation.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 6.5 Creedmoor was introduced by Hornady in 2008. Uniquely, it was designed for accuracy with long-range competition in mind. Using a 308 Winchester (30 TC, 300 Savage) case shortened to 1.920 inches, it will feed through the shortest existing bolt actions, but remains supersonic to well beyond 1000 yards. Standard velocity is a 140-grain .264-inch bullet at 2820 fps, also making it an effective but mild-recoiling medium-range hunting cartridge. The 6.5 Creedmoor was introduced with little fanfare, but after it started winning matches shooters took notice. This is an unusual phenomenon for a cartridge to suddenly "take off" years after its introduction, but that's the story of the 6.5 Creedmoor--after about 2016 it became one of the most-talked-about cartridges, with both rifle and ammunition offerings expanding rapidly.
