The Aguila 81489AG delivers match-grade accuracy with proven terminal performance in the popular 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge. This premium hunting ammunition combines Hornady's proven InterLock bullet technology with Aguila's precision manufacturing to create a round that excels at medium to long-range hunting applications.
What Makes This Different
The InterLock bullet design mechanically locks the core and jacket together during expansion, preventing separation that can reduce penetration and wound channel effectiveness. The boat tail configuration reduces drag for flatter trajectory and retained velocity at extended ranges. Aguila's consistent powder charges and quality brass cases deliver shot-to-shot uniformity that competitors struggle to match at this price point.
