Federal Gold Medal 6.5 Creedmoor 140 Grain Sierra MatchKing BTHP
For decades, Federal Gold Medal has been the industry benchmark against which all other match-grade ammunition is measured. This 6.5 Creedmoor load, featuring the legendary 140-grain Sierra MatchKing Boat-Tail Hollow Point (BTHP), is specifically engineered for long-range competitive shooters and precision marksmen who demand sub-MOA accuracy and extreme consistency. Whether you are competing in a PRS match or stretching the legs of your precision rifle at the range, this ammunition delivers the predictable performance required to hit small targets at great distances.
The secret to Gold Medal’s success lies in the meticulous attention to detail during the manufacturing process. Federal uses world-class Gold Medal primers, which are known for their rapid, uniform ignition. Each round is loaded with specially formulated, clean-burning powders and held to tight velocity tolerances to minimize vertical stringing at long range. The Sierra MatchKing bullet features a high ballistic coefficient (BC) and a streamlined boat-tail design, allowing it to buck the wind and maintain a flat trajectory throughout its flight path.
Loaded into premium, reloadable Federal brass, the GM65CRD1 load provides handload-quality performance in a convenient factory box. When every millisecond and every fraction of an inch counts, Federal Gold Medal is the ammunition trusted by professionals to get the job done.
