Hornady Custom 6.5 Grendel 123gr SST Ammunition - 20 Rounds

The Hornady Custom 6.5 Grendel 123-grain Super Shock Tip ammunition delivers exceptional long-range performance for AR-15 platform rifles. This premium hunting cartridge combines match-grade accuracy with devastating terminal ballistics for medium game hunting and precision shooting applications.

What Makes This Different

The Super Shock Tip (SST) bullet design features a polymer tip that initiates rapid expansion upon impact while maintaining aerodynamic efficiency during flight. Unlike standard soft-point bullets, the SST maintains its ballistic coefficient throughout its trajectory, delivering flatter shooting performance and consistent energy transfer at extended ranges. The secant ogive profile and boat-tail base design reduce drag significantly compared to conventional hunting bullets.

Key Features

• 123-grain Super Shock Tip bullet optimized for 6.5 Grendel ballistics
• Polymer tip initiates controlled expansion at velocities down to 1,600 fps
• InterLock ring mechanically locks core and jacket together
• Match-grade brass cases with consistent wall thickness
• Premium powder charge delivers 2,580 fps muzzle velocity
• Boat-tail design maintains velocity and accuracy at distance
• 20-round packaging ideal for hunting and precision shooting

Field performance demonstrates excellent accuracy potential in quality barrels, typically achieving sub-MOA groups at 100 yards. The 6.5 Grendel cartridge excels in AR-15 platforms for hunting whitetail deer, hogs, and similar-sized game out to 300 yards. The SST bullet construction provides reliable expansion in both high and moderate velocity impacts, making it effective across the cartridge's entire performance envelope.
