The Browning Silver 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition delivers consistent terminal performance with its precision-engineered 129-grain plated soft point bullet design. This factory-loaded cartridge combines proven ballistics with reliable expansion characteristics for medium to large game hunting applications.
What Makes This Different
The plated soft point construction features a copper-plated jacket that reduces barrel fouling while maintaining controlled expansion upon impact. Unlike standard soft point designs, the plating process creates uniform jacket thickness that promotes consistent mushrooming patterns. The 129-grain bullet weight provides an optimal balance of velocity retention and energy transfer in the 6.5 Creedmoor platform, delivering flatter trajectories than heavier projectiles while maintaining adequate sectional density for penetration.
Key Features
- 129-grain plated soft point bullet with controlled expansion design
- Factory-loaded brass cases with consistent powder charges
- Copper plating reduces barrel fouling and extends cleaning intervals
- Optimized for 6.5 Creedmoor chamber specifications and SAAMI standards
- 20 rounds per box with 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
- Boxer-primed brass cases suitable for reloading applications
- Quality control tested for consistent velocities and accuracy
Field performance testing demonstrates reliable expansion at hunting velocities from 100 to 400 yards. The 129-grain weight maintains sufficient energy for ethical harvests on deer-sized game while producing manageable recoil in standard hunting rifles. Weather-resistant primer sealing prevents moisture contamination during extended storage or adverse hunting conditions.
