Nosler 40015 6.5x55 Swedish 120gr Expansion Tip Hunting Ammo

The Nosler 40015 delivers precision hunting performance in the classic 6.5x55 Swedish caliber with advanced Expansion Tip technology. This premium ammunition combines traditional Scandinavian ballistics with modern bullet design for consistent terminal performance on medium game.

What Makes This Different

The Expansion Tip design features a polymer tip that initiates controlled expansion while maintaining bullet integrity through tough hide and bone. Unlike standard soft-point bullets that can deform or fragment unpredictably, the engineered tip ensures consistent mushrooming at velocities from 1,800 to 3,200 fps. The 120-grain weight provides an optimal balance of velocity and energy retention for the 6.5x55 Swedish cartridge.

Key Features

• 120-grain Expansion Tip bullet with polymer tip for reliable expansion
• Precision-drawn brass cases with consistent wall thickness
• Premium powder charge for velocity consistency within 50 fps
• Boat-tail design reduces drag for flatter trajectory
• Lead core bonded to jacket prevents separation
• 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
• Optimized for 6.5x55 Swedish chamber specifications

Field testing shows this load achieves approximately 2,850 fps from a 24-inch barrel with sub-MOA accuracy potential in quality rifles. The controlled expansion creates wound channels 1.5-2x bullet diameter while retaining 85-90% of original weight. Effective range extends to 400 yards on deer-sized game with proper shot placement and favorable conditions.
